Bumpers - Pre-facelift to Cupra R

[cupra_tan]

Hi all.

Just wondered whether it is very difficult to change the front and rear bumpers on a MK 1 Leon cupra, from the pre-facelift ones to those on a Cupra R???

Also are the bumpers on a cupra r and fr the same???

Cheers
Tan

P.S...What sort of price would I be looking at??

 

[gazrhys]

They are different designs i think try eurocarparts for the bumpers somewhere around 50quid last time i look on there site dont know about quality tho

 

[cupra.rich]

dont think there actually the bumpers on that website, think their just the 'carriers' for them!

the cupra front bumper is about £380
then needs to be sprayed.

but yes it possible.

Actually the centre grill with the "S" is £21 the lower centre grill is £30 and the fog light grills are £10 each, i know this to be true as i bought them last week, from Seat in Droitwich.

 

[kineticz]

Strange as I was charged about £35 for the lower centre and about £16 each for the two sides from Seat Stoke a couple weeks ago
