Selling my Mk5 GTI Front and Back Bumper LA7T United Grey
« on: November 09, 2017, 01:18:29 pm »
Managed to obtain Edition 30 parts.  :innocent: on my United grey mk5 gti.

If anyone is interested I've still got my genuine front and rear bumpers. Front bumper has the rare headlight washers, fog lights. All Bottom grills. . But no top grill.

Rear bumper is in good condition. In grey with the normal gti textured valance.

Open to offers. Just sat in garage now. Pm me for more info.  :happy2:

As requested.

Before. (Bumpers I'm selling - the bottom valance. ) Front bumper will
Have no top grill. )  If interested type gti bumper on gumtree.


















The rear bumper does not have the rear parking sensors holes as it's not the bumper. I used my original bumper as it had parking sensors  :P and stuck the diffuser on to it.

The top of the rear bumper looks like this ( pic taken from the guy I got my bumpers from )



After:

How it currently stands  :evilgrin:

Slightly off topic from sale post, where did you find the ed30 rear?
Could have sworn the OE VW ed30 bumper didn't have reflectors on them as they're in the rear light cluster...
Though if I remember correctly the R32 OE bumper had reflectors.
Anyone able to clarify?

You can get ones like that just from eBay and other bodykit websites but you are right the original edition30 bumpers didn't dome with rear reflectors like that

Does it fit/clip on well? some of the third party bumpers seem to wobble/hang loose which isn't ideal.

Hi, it fitted quite well tbh. The sides of the valance were held
on with the clips provided on the valance.  They just slotted to the existing holes

As for the middle of the valance the clips had to be held on with a few screws to make sure they don't slip back out the holes.

Some people use heat gun glue to stick the clips in place but I never bothered, holds well with the screws.

Think it's pretty much the same with the front Ed30 splitter. They don't really need major tweaking to get fitted perfectly. Pretty straightforward.

Looking to get some side skirts extensions from maxtondesign this weekend.  :laugh: :laugh: :happy2:

Is the front bumper still for sale?

No lacquer peeling on it?

Thanks.
