Default Chrome Inserts Premium Bumper

Nick

I have just spoken to one of the MD's, he is going to try and find out who has the pressing tool for the chrome inserts. He could make them, but I would think there would have to be alot before he would.

I have been looking at reproducing the number plate fittings, perhaps in led technology to improve them!

Default Premuim Bumper

Only the facelift models, unless you face lift it by replacing the headlights to the new ones, all the facelift was new lights and bumper (Front end)

Default Premuim Bumper

It would make it look a whole newer!!!!

however, the rear bumper is in keeping with design to each type, ie older shape rounder bumpers, facelift has sharpe lines set in, so i would suggest if you went to the trouble of upgrading the front, finsh the rear off with a facelift rear bumper...

If you could i think there would be a demand for the chrome inserts
i suppose it all depends on how big the demand is...Good luck

If my memory serves me right im sure a couple of members were trying
to find a way to have some made last year and i know quite a few
members have the bumper but not the insert and im sure those members
would appreciate your efforts

PS
Welcome to the club

If you could reproduce the chrome grill surround, there would be a very happy trader in the west midlands who'd be a happy chappy....
