Hi, Ive just spent all my jolly free time sanding a spraying a gsi bumper then, i took off my mk1 and then low and behold the side brakets that hole the outter bits to the car are different!!!
How do i get around this? What should i do? :confused:

mark and drill the wings

Yeh i would but it has theese hooks on the gsi bumper then on the mk1 original bumper it has plates that slide into theese grooves
but where do i mark and drill, Cause i guess i would need to get new brakets for the gsi bumpers yes?

Personally I wouldnt fit it to a mk1, a facelift would be ideal :thumb:

If you dont want to get new brackets etc you could simply drill two holes through the bumper where it tucks round the wing and put a bolt through at the top and the bottom. job done.

take the mk 1 brackets off the wing 10 mm inside the wing then put a wanted on here for the mk2 fitting blocks (2 black plastic blocks each side)
you will get them for roughly 10/15 quid inc post
