Someone please source me a good r32 rear bumper
« on: December 14, 2014, 03:16:34 pm »
I have found one on gumtree for £140, what do you guys think about this one.

Please help me out my budget is £150 because, I am ordering the BCS full system, which if you know is not cheap.

At that budget, you'll only really be looking at very used genuine parts or replica parts. Genuine parts should always fit perfectly first time, but replicas can be just as good depending on who made them. Depends if you're able to live with having a fake bum on your car... :happy2:

As well, that one on Gumtree is primed and ready to paint, which should further save costs as a paint shop won't have to strip and prepare a used item.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

For £150 you'll not be getting a genuine part so may as well get that copy. There are loads of copies about, some on ebay and a few on the net, all for that price. Try to get one with a seperate diffuser and with a heatshield.

I'm sure Nige at BCS would also recommend getting a proper OEM part for fitment with his big arse tail pipes.

My geniune R32 rear end (below) with BCS 100mm 35 degree slash cut tips, there isn't a lot of spare room so bare that in mind. If your still getting a copy then get the smaller 80mm tips to be safe.
