After a GSi front bumper that's in orignal plastic n it's proving to be quite a mission, lookin in back of max power today and i saw an Advert for CCM, selling Gsi Front bumpers for 80 quid.

I presume these are aftermarket moulds ?

Are they any good, or will theybe an ill fitting peice of rubbish ?

cheers

i got mine from FFWD too. it isnt any cheap reproduction, its a spot on fitment etc. the only downside is it comes with those anoying bobbles all over, which means it needs smoothing.

i was under the impression from the EPC that vaux only supplied the GSi bumper in primer

Original gsi bumpers from vauxhall are ?115+VAT. They ONLY come in primer ready to be sprayed. You used to be able to get them in grey (like an sri bumper) but not anymore.

Trust me i went on a mission tryin to get 1 in grey! If any1 knows better please let me know! :D :D

I phoned CCM and they said that their bumpers are fibreglass and come in a gell coat ready for spraying, also they dont fit on the original mounts.

Cheers.

i got mine from autovaux. www.autovaux.co.uk

with all fittings and brackets it came to just shy of 200 quid. the actual bumper came in grey plastic and iirc it was about 120 or 130 quid - thats without the brackets n mounting bar whcih all need bought seperate.

Wouldn't it have been easier (and cheaper!!) just to buy a gsi front bumper?!?!?! :!:
