    Default Unpainted GSi front bumper

    As far as I'm aware they are not available new, but if they are someone please divulge.

    I want one, complete with towing eye, and will pay a fair price.

    The funny thing is you have to paint the tow eye any way as they do not do it any other way

    Oh really that's a bit of a bummer. My OCD wouldn't like that.

    I might pop and see my painter tomorrow and see if he can Matt a rover hurricane grey instead.

    Never heard or seen the tow eye been a different colour before

    The ones I've bought have all been the same colour anyway

    Pretty sure my new unpainted bumper had a matching towing eye cover, didn't matter anyway as I painted it

    Well mine does not match so I can only go off that as there did not appear to be another option

    Back in the early 2000's my brother had a few SRi's. They were all white and all absolutely mint. As soon as he used to get one home he would de-trim it, take off the vinyl, then go to Vauxhall and buy an unpainted GSi bumper for around £100.

    I never remember any tow eye covers getting painted, but that was of course a long time ago.
