Oettinger rear bumper - are they any good?
« on: May 04, 2012, 07:55:05 am »
As above really, have the opportunity to get a rear Oettinger bumper - looks like a mix between a GTI one and ED 30 one, just not sure it they are good?

Lol, I was just asking as I think it could be a replica, genuine ones retail for far more than that. I asked if it's genuine or replica and the reply was " Its the plastic fibre version". That was it, nothing else. :confused:

Hmm could be the US spec version then as looking on oettinger's site they are different in US to Europe

I like it but would want the RRIM made one not fibreglass

That one on eBay shows oettinger embossed into the bumper. Looks pretty good imo
