The mk3 saloon bumper fits straight onto the mk2 coupe at the original mounting holes as they share the same brackets but major trimming is needed around the arches as the bumper goes half way up the car *slight exageration*

If you do swap them over remember to stick plenty of grease on the bracket as they have a tendancy to rust big time.

i can darn a sock and cook a spag bol so good it almost kills you (with a smile on your face) .... :D so i guess the important 2 out of 3 is alright. (mind you it's more worth your time putting in 15 minutes overtime and buying another pair of tesco socks rather than spending that long sewing 'em these days)
Ironing seems to be something that I just don't have the neccessary spatial co-ordination to master... even with being a Dancing Barmanâ„¢

What do you mean slight exaggeration... the bumpers DO come halfway up the car! Well, halfway from the ground to the top of the bonnet anyway, there's probably more expanse of bumper than actual wing there. And at least 1/3 of the way back (from the front) or forwards (from the back)...

would they sell for much?
Hiya,

Do you have a set of fronts to sell or are you looking to buy some? I've got black and silver striped seats in my mk2 Coupe S but the driver's side is getting a bit worn on the seat base bolster. Might be interested in a replacement although it'd have to be the same type of material - mine is a 1985 (B) car and the quality of the cloth on the seats is much better than on the later seats. The later ones feel more woolly and less hard wearing - they tend to go "bobbly".

Cheers.
