Title: GTI/JETTA BUMPER LOCATIONS TO BUY
Post by: Melvin084 on December 09, 2013, 09:11:22 pm

Hi there guys, I have a 1.4 fsi and I would like to change the front bumper to either a gti  or a jetta one. Now the problem I'm having is that I can't find anywhere to buy a COMPLETE with the girll, moulding etc. I have seen some ebay sellers selling the gti ones but I'm not sure about them because I have purchased a bumper valance in the past from ebay and I'm now selling it because it won't fit my car as some clippings are missing. Can anybody help me with sources?  :innocent:

I got my GTI replica bumper from eBay mate, it did require a little tiny trim here and there but was a very good fit after that.

Can't think of any clips you will need other than what they come with or that you can't take from your old bumper.

If you find a genuine front bumper all you'll need to do is cut so the slam panel fits, other than that it should be a straight swap

I seaarched through breakers on eBay for mine, got the bumper from one, the lower grilles from another seller, then the center grill off a seller on here. All parts are genuine too.

Just takes a bit of time
