Replacement front bumper

#1: Replacement front bumper Author: ct-xsi, Location: Wakefield PostPosted: Fri Jan 16, 2015 1:36 pm

Right, the girlfriend has crashed her 206, non-sport.

im wondering if I can replace the bumper with a gti/sport bumper and keep the non-sport wings or will I have bad fitment issues?

thanks

As far as I've understood it from hanging here for many years, there should be no issues mixing wing/bumper types.

Think you will find there is a bit of overlap on top edge of bumper where it fits on bottom edge of wing when mixed.

Don't think it is that much to worry about though.

It fits with no problem,the only thing that is diff. is the wheel arches as the fixing holes will not line up,you can use plastic zip tie or get sport wheel arches.

The plastic arch liners in the wheel arch. Differs on sport model

Right just to bring this up again...

am I right in thiknkng that 'sport bumpers' are fitted to gtis/xsi?

what about the little 1.1 sports or cc's? they have a larger grille fitted but the wings don't appear to be flared like the 'sport' wings?

This is the type I mean:

The front arch liners are what you need when putting a sports bumper on. This is unrelated to what wings the car has. (ie. It doesnt matter if the car had flared wings or not)
