Default Anyone has a bumper cover?

Anyone here has a narrow body (stadard) bumper cover they want want to get rid of cheap?

Or possibly trade it in for a fiberglass Turbo-S front splitter in excellent condition?


I am thinking of going back to the standard front bumper with the RS splitter.

thanks,
anthony

I'm selling a NB front bumper cover in the classifieds. It's on Ebay as of this week with a starting bid that equals what I've had listed here.

TFM,

You interested in a trade? I am going to put my Turbo-S splitter up for sale. It's in virtually brand new condition. Already painted GP White 908. I am thinking of $275.

If anyone is interested, let me know.

How well does the fiberglass front splitter hold up? I have my original NB front bumper in my garage sitting on top of my Corrado and may want to add the s-lip.

I just put a turbo front bumper cover on, and I have the parts to lower the car next; my plan is to hold off for now on the turbo-S lip until the underside gets scrape-up and then, when it inevitably does, I'll cover it up with the lip. I'm a little worried that the fiberglass aftermarket part won't be up to spec. There's some threads on this.

From my experience, it wasn't that bad. Before painting, I did get it scraped once or twice because my car is extremely low. The spoiler has a groove/extrusion right below the lip (you can see it in the next to last picture) that takes the scrape. The plastic turbo bumper I have also help absorb the impact. Of the time I scraped it, the groove at the bottom gets a bit scratched. This was repaired when it was repainted.

The OEM spoiler also has this little groove.

I recently put a Turbo Bumper cover on too, and I would happily trade you my OEM NB bumper for the S-lip if you picked up the shipping for both !
