R32 Rear Bumper - Looks the part - Bought It !!!
« on: March 11, 2013, 09:58:26 pm »
Im not one for knock offs / non- genuine parts but he has sold a lot of these in the past few weeks with great feedback from the buyers.

How bad can they be?.....Ive been waiting a while to find rear bumper to spray in Tornado Red and get fitted. Non have come up on here in my price range

Worth a punt?......Opinions welcome......... :popcornsoda:

^^^^
 I'd worry about the fit of these. Some of these non OEM bumpers are shocking, with clips not lining up or the whole bumper being to big or to small. I have no knowledge of this one, may be the best one around. You pays your money....

Have a look at Ready To Fit Panels, couple of peeps including brookesb32 (Simon) on here have used them and seem very happy with the quality and colour match.

They also sell on eBay. Their ebay advert for the Mk5 GTI bumper...

At that price though i could just get my standard bumper professionally sprayed for £120 at my body shop.

I want the Ed30 or R32 back end really.....

I keep getting really tempted by one of the R32 rep bumpers with the GTI exhaust cutout.

Eurotuning ED30 rear is even cheaper than ebay too

Do Euro tuning have a good reputation?

I'm sure that link is just a painted GTI bumper, the R32 has reflectors and slightly shaped.

Is this more like the R32 with left hand exhaust cut out

The one i  linked was an edition 30 style rear bumper,

If you look on there site they do a R32 one with a lefthand cutout for the same price.
