rear bumper is the same as you currently have with 2 exceptions:

1. there is a little cut out for the zorst (nothing major, some ppl even prefer the non cut out normal one........ if you like the cut out make it yourself on ur bumper)

2. colour coded (again do this yourself)

GSI front is lower and better and will be a direct replacement for your bumper

good luck

if i leave my old back one on though and try to colour code it wont i have that nasty bobble effect still ??

is it worth the hassle spending the time to try and colour code my standard one or just fit the gsi one ??

cheers

buy a gsi one.

for the time and money you'll spend colour coding your original, it would be cheper to buy a second hand gsi one

as long as you can find a decent colour matching one.........

its not hard to smooth out the dipples using sandpaper....... up to you, if you can find a decent gsi job for ?30 or so go for that, if you want the fun of doing it urself do that, it will tkae a while tho, so if u use the car everyday run with no bumper or borrow one for the time u spend, dont rush!

finally found a gsi bumper at a decent price, cheers John Unwin !!!
now just a few more questions, is the gsi bumper lower than a standard 1.0ltr bumper ?? if so how much ??
has the gsi bumper got that nasty dimple effect ?? :?
is it better to leave the bumper standard, or bigmouth it ??
and finally ....... if i put an ibiza splitter on it will this affect how low i can go ??

cheers guys n gals
