What is needed to fit a GTI or Jetta bumper to a Golf TDI.
« on: December 09, 2012, 06:22:37 pm »
I know a few people have done this and I am wandering what is needed to fit one to a Diesel with the standard front bumper. Is it a case of just a straight swap or do I need to change other parts? Is there a guide anywhere for doing this?
How hard can it be?

As far as I know it's a straight swap

The enforcer is a different shape so either that will need to be changed or a small bit of bumper will need to be removed so that it fits over the original one on your car

So does the towing eye screw hole and everything else fit right?

Also will I need to get new foglights to the ones that fit in my current bumper or will these swap over?
