Yeah, the metal strips should have a hole(s) drilled throught them and be fiberglassed onto the bumper, in the correct place to be bolted on to the rear bumper carriage.

You'll have to remove the rear bumper, and offer up the new one up to see. Not a one man job, neither.

Unless you use the old rear bumper as a guide, but it's more difficult to be accurate.

sounds like a lot of messing seeing they cost soo much.

Isn't that the fun of modding though? :lol:

I'm not sure how the BAT bumper compares to the Novadose one for fitting, but I bought a Novadose one and I must admit I'm impressed with the fitting. They seem to have taken everything into consideration when designing the bumper.

The Novadose bumper is fairly straight forward to fit. I would have thought the BAT one wouldn't be too difficult to fit :?

that is what i would to belive but the way marty makes it sound it seems like an arse to fit.

Yeah, i have one of their front bumpers and it's an arse to fit. Plus it didn't arrive in as good condition as i would have expected for ?275 - there's quite big chips in it, and loads of rought patches.

The stuff i got from Kindgdom is absolutely top quality though, even if i did have to wait for months for them.

But i guess the quality of stuff like that depends from time to time, as they'll all be made individually.

I had a Carisma rear bumper (Fusion) and that was great quality and had all the fittings already on it, so just bolted straight on. And for only ?180.
