GTI Front bumper question
« on: May 13, 2014, 11:36:28 pm »
Hi all , im new here... Im a bit of a MK5 noob and this question has probable been answer 100 times... im getting myself a MK5 soon and looking to put the GTI front bumper on it... as far as im aware ( correct me if im wrong ) it comes with the honeycomb grill..



I like the look of this grill and just wondering are they hard to come by, Price range, fitting problems.




Thanks in advance, Tracey

Should be a straight swap, that's the GT/ GT Sport grille in your second picture. Rest of the bumper is more or less the same.

They are indeed a straight swap.

The GTI and GT bumpers are exactly the same. Only difference is the grills and valances.  :happy2:

Shame that's collection only. I wish some people knew how easy it is to use a courier and therefore be able to sell an item to the whole of the UK instead of local!
