Lupo bumpers - Fitting Gti bumpers
« on: July 24, 2011, 05:37:07 pm »

Does anyone know if the Lupo (1.4 16v) will accept Lupo Gti bumpers without too much hassle?

Thanks

The fronts won't fit as the wings are different and the rear will fit if it's a 1.4 Sport as it has a centre exit exhaust.

I think if you changed the wings they would fit, but the wings used to be rather expensive as they were lightweight aluminium.

rear bumper is also completely different.

it marries to the shape of the rear arches creating a full arch, whereas the non gtis do not. the arches are also wider.
