GTI Bumpers won't fit without work doing and also the wings, headlights, bonnet, slam panel etc etc

Valver bumpers fit though

Somebody went to town on that windscreen! I would say valver bumpers, coilovers and some "13 Minilites or ATS classics. Good colour to start with, also give it a polish haha

Just to give you an idea "valver" bumpers are from a 1.4 16v and front and back are one piece bumpers.

8v bumper (yours) are 2-3 piece (can't remember which )

16v bumpers

And you can get them with front fogs

just a update I'm getting a 16v bumper with the next few days :)

Heres some inspiration for you. I had a 6N with the same damage to the wing and door and looking pretty terrible for £175:

And after two months, and £200 i turned it into this. It then sold for a decent profit 8-) :

cheers matt , did you replace the door or did you try and fix it , i think I'm going to replace bonnet wing and the door , also ic found a rust hole where my spare wheel is so I'm going to weld that up over the weekend :)

  • Author

alright guy's went to scrappy today to check how much all the parts i need gonna cost

bonnet £20

door £20 (complete with out wing mirror )

wing £25

plus iv been thinking of doing a side exit exhaust each side , as mines been lowered I'm going to use 2 SUZUKI TL 1000 SILENCER as i had this same exhaust on my mini and it sounded amazing :)

That's quite a steal you got there :) You should make a build thread on this. I'm really interested on seeing the outcome.
