ZT bumper inserts?

DC53 LSY · 12th July 2012, 18:40

Can you actually buy these, e.g. from X-Part, already colour coded, or do they come as an integral part of the full bumper? Our ZT bares evidence of a couple of whoopsie-daisy moments and I'm thinking I might just be better off replacing this rear bumper insert rather than try to repaint it myself:

Thanks!

Seancar was advertising chrome inserts, he may have coloured ones available:

On the zt they are actually part of the bumper moulding. You can't remove them like you can on the 75.

You can remove the rear ones.

Aha, indeed you can. I stand corrected!

In fact I should have known this as I have indeed replaced one side of mine before.

Probably sprayed with bumper on the production line. Just think of the number of coloured trims would be needed to be kept in stock.

That is why those trims come in primer only
