Cupra R front end onto Cupra

[neilmacd]

Evening

I'm interested in fitting a LCR front bumper to my Mk1 LC. It seems a relatively simple swap over as far as the size of the bumper goes, but I need to know the part numbers for the grilles, lower splitter and any mounts that need to be changed over. Any help much appreciated

if you do change the front bumper use fallen angel's site its the nuts and has good clear detailed pics.
i used it and everything was spot on.
you can also check part numbers on "etka" web site. that has exploded views of parts so you know what part numbers are needed.

I've got a cupra r bumper that i'm not going to use if your interested? it's got all the grills and splitter attached and is in top condition, the only thing i don't have for it is the fog lights.
I'm in central scotland, so could probably meet you halfway to save it getting damaged by courier.

Wow! Great site Fallen Angel!

I'm looking to do exactly the same to my 2001 Cupra.

1 question for you:

1. Where did you source your bumpers? Obviously I want OEM standard but aftermarket price...there is one guy selling the full kit on Ebay, but not sure about the quality:

If anyones got a spare set please let me know! Also would like R alloys!

Also, would like them primed and painted. If anyone knows of reliable paintshop in West Mids area then again, let me know.

Cheers.

that kit is fibre glass i asked them myself a while back. so wont flex as well as oem bumpers and will prob stone chip easily.
good old ebay for front bumpers, rear bumpers are a little harder to get hold of, still looking myself.
18" cupra alloys.........GOLD DUST..and expensive.
good luck mate

Thanks. Will LCR alloys fit straight onto a 2001 Cupra?

 

[Deleted member 20482]

should do.
i went from naff 15" to 17"facelift cupra alloys straight on.
wanted 18" cupra's but had trouble sourcing them.
i was going to put them on mine so would imagine yes.

Shortie --- If you still have that bumper i'm very interested and also live in central scotland

 

[murtagh_sean]

Hi Shortie is your front bumper a genuine Seat part or is it Fibreglass because if it is genuine I'd be very interested!!

Shortie has sold the bumper.
