Hey guys,
Im looking at buying a GTi bumper and was wondering what sort of price you guys would expect to pay if you were buying one?
The one I've found is in good condition and they're asking for £70, and I'm debating it, but want to get you guys opinions first.
Thanks,
Paddy!

Search on ebay and see what the average price is that way you can tell if yours is overpriced or not.

I wouldnt even debate paying £40, I'd have it bought haha, but you're right 70 seems a bit much, its just tempting with it being the right colour code and the same age, so it should be aroun d the same colour fading aswell haha.

if its your colour code then maybe it is worth £70 as even if you got a bumper for free would cost you that to spray it your colour code

Yeah, I decided to buy it in the end haha, hopefully should be here by either Thursday or Friday!
Since its the EXL code I need I thought I may as well, it'd probably cost a fair bit for a respray, the only problem is gonna be having to cable tie the wheel arch liners in place until I find a set of GTI ones!

Scrap yards are the best place for GTi arch liners, XSi's have flared wings aswell, The scrap yard near me sells arch liners for £8
