Rear sport bumper, just need a cheap diffuser for it now :)

Bob is that a straight swap fit? - Great price btw... was it the same colour?

Yes you can use the same wheel nuts across the range. You only need to buy different ones when you fit spacers.

I am told it needs different corner brackets but I havent looked into it yet. I have got the diffuser for it now though :)

Yes its the same colour but it needs a paint.

I am waiting until I have the front bumper and side skirts then will get them and a few niggles painted on the car at the same time.

Thanks for the info Bob - I appreciate that especially as you've saved me money :)

Are spacers used purely for aesthetics to bring the wheel further out?

The sports bumper you bought, would that have to be a pre-facelift sport version. Something like this:

(excuse me if this should be obvious sometimes find it hard to identify the difference in kit pieces)

You managed to get that for under £30.... :thumbup: Savage hunter! - I know you bought the diffuser afterwards but even those look to be really expensive.

Makes sense to get the whole kit together and have it all done at once... That's going to be a major milestone! :)

The one you have linked is the same one I bought, its an Mtec 2 kit.

I paid £25.00 for the bumper and the PDC strip, then got a great condition diffuser for £50.00 :)
