I had the bumpers colour coded when my girlfriend owned my TD Nova about a year ago. Thing is I've seen so many clean examples of nice looking Novas and they have the black standard look bumpers.
I just want your opinion whether I should keep the coloured bumpers or buy some new black ones.
I've got black GSi skirts, standard grill and Calibra alloys fitted at the mo.

The black bumpers are sitting on a mates project car in mint condition - ?30 for both. So its buy them or just keep my coloured bumpers.

Colour coded with black skirts to match the black splitter looks good. :thumb:

Yep, i think colour coded looks better than black on your car.

Nope SR bumpers are more like standard MK2 bumpers, different to GSi ones.

Mk2 sr are exactly thr same as any mk2 bumper, apart from they may have a blue/red strip on.
Gsi is a completely different bumper.
