VW Golf MK4 R Line Rear Bumper!
« on: 07 August 2014, 08:22 »
So I have the damn right awful stock rear bumper/valance on and I want to change it to a colour coded one (my paint code is lc9z)
I was thinking anniversary but everyone seems to have or want them!

Has anyone seen the "R Line" style one with the slats at the bottom? Any good places to get one/price etc?
And most important of all, what do you all think?

Cheers!

The R line rear is not an addon at the bottom. Its a totally new bumper. They are discontinued and very rare. Expect to pay £600+ for a genuine one. There are firbre glass ones out there but they are terrible and would not advise getting one. Also have a go on the search function and type "R line rear bumper" any topic, question you can dream of will be there :)

Ahh hell didn't realise they were that expensive.

Have you got any alternatives that you would recommend? Genuine is preferred but I do like saving a dollar or two!

anni/4mo valance is a popular choice

I spent 2 years trying to find one and with the help of a friend and fellow forum member i got my hands on one.
Don't get any after market bumpers, just get genuine otherwise they wont fit correctly.

This was mine before i stripped it earlier this year.

That's exactly the one I'm after, except without an exhaust cut out (oil burner you see)

If you see or hear of one going, let us know  :grin:

Take it from someone who bought an aftermarket R-Line bumper, AVOID FIBERGLASS AT ALL COST!

Im currently waiting patiently for a genuine Rline bumper to pop up id rather pay big money for something thats genuine and a great fit
