Do GSi bumpers really sell for this much?

Seems a lot - I bought mine for twenty quid.

[craig green]

I expect so on ebay.

[Jack]

I have seen them sell for that much before, although unused/unpainted ones. I'd expect around the £50 for a good nick one though like in that ebay listing.

[wwmnw]

Wanna buy my unpainted and unused one for £49? lol

Nah, got one already, ta! Still need a rear GSi bumper though...

[Nova_Sean]

theyre the same as normal aint they? Only a slightly bigger exhaust hole? iirc

Not a real great deal between the rear standard and gsi ones,
just a small cut out for the exhaust, you could cut one out yourself and save your self some money. Just my opinion

[wwmnw]

Don't the rear GSi ones flair down and out a little bit more?

That's what I thought, but I'm by no means a Nova veteran so I could be wrong.

[bazil]

I do believe that the only difference is the cutout as i cant see any other difference

[bazil]

Do the standard bumpers have a smooth of textured feel?

[Nova_Sean]

std's are textured

[bazil]

There's your difference aswell, if you look at the paint finnish on my pic you see there is no texture whatsoever.

[Jack]

I believe all are textured, just GSi ones are painted which fills in the surface.

And yeas, only difference is the exhaust cutout.

[Mark]

Nah, got one already, ta!

Got a fiberglass one here, but would only really suit a track car. Held onto it cos it is rare, but dont need it now as my next one will be a coupe lol

[MK999]

Lee, which tailgate is that? That's the style I want for the SR, numberplate recess sized like an early mk1, rather than mk2 with grab handle missing lol

[Lee]

Tis fiberglass Mark, but it is styled on an early MK1 tailgate yes :)

[MK999]

I realised that, few different people do them though, and I've only seen the mk2 based ones so far lol

[Lee]

Sorry mate lol. They came from Eurorallye

[MK999]

Hmm expensive, shame no one else thinks to use a more correct looking mould lol Something else to add to the list of stuff I can't afford yet I guess :p

Yeah, they're not cheap BUT they are beautifully moulded. All the bracing on the bonnet and the inner skin on the tailgate is perfect. Not seen an equivelent as good IMO
