Thanks mate,
Spend a lot of time trying to work out what will go with what, and what I need to improve on it.
Small update,
Bought a second hand R32 bumper off ebay a few weeks ago and also got a US spec top half bumper,
I know how hard it is to find R32 bumpers in the UK with shortened recesses, so thought I would have a go myself as enjoy a bit of DIY and plastic welding.
Sized up the recess space and then got a cheap old lower part and cut out the number plate corners, this allowed me to glue and weld the pieces in to fill in the gaps without losing any shape of the recess.
welded it as best I could and then put a bit of E38 bonding on and smoothed it out.
Then off to the bodyshop it went last Thursday.
On Wednesday this week I got a phone call from them, they had bonded the bits I did a bit stronger, but when they put the 2 bumpers together, the US green one I had did not match in size, I have no idea why and can only guess that the US one is a slightly different size as the bottom part will also be?
So they suggested I get another top part, and they will cut out the top part number plate recess and fix it to another bumper.
Straight away got on ebay and found a bloke local in Birmingham who has loads in stock, shot over and got it and had it to the body shop in an hour.
Problem solved.......not quite
Went to collect it today, and as I was going to be fitting it alone they offered to help me with fitting.
3 hours later, and we have realised that the top part bumper I bought is not a genuine part, and as a result the lines are not perfect on it, they crease slightly and dont sit flush to the other panels.
Not got a pic yet, but will do one over the weekend, the plate recess looks 100 times better, but I am going to have to take my genuine bumper in and get that adjusted too I think as a show car with imperfections is a hanging offence!
Credit again to Chase Automotive for all the hard work that they put into the car and bumper for me though!
