front bumper spoiler

Postby pat stevens » Fri Jan 07, 2011 1:10 am

today i got hold of a mk3/4 front bumper spoiler (if i remember its a van shop item ) its damaged so im gonna repair it then take a couple of moulds off it one for early mk3/4 and then modify it for later mk4/5s and run a few up to see what they come out like .if anyone wants one i dont mind making you one i will try and do them as cheaply as possible for forum members but i think they will probably be around the £90 /£100 ish and be in primer anyone interested let me know i should be starting the moulds sometime next week if i get chance
if its got tits or wheels its always gonna end in trouble !!!
anyone can restore a van but it takes a real man to chop it up !!!

This is one of my favourites of the FibreSport (Vanshop) MK3 bumper converted for the MK5... Grunty was talking of making a new bumper, maybe you two should get together :wink:

Would you be able to do them without the spotlight holes as I'd prob want to fit some round spots. Not the end of the world if you can't tho :D
