All Mk5 bumpers are the same. The bump strips on the E models aren't colour coded, but are on the rest of the range. The trim on the bumpers varies depending on the model. Only the GTI gets the honeycomb trim and the washer jet holes cut from the factory

You can get a standard bumper and have the headwasher holes cut, and if your getting them smoothed I wouldn't worry so much about the colour of the bumper, it has to be fully painted either way.

Why not just get yours done, and when it comes to selling up, I'm sure someone would swap you with their's plus cash?

Yeh, i went down the 'purchase front bumper' route, but then sold it and decided that I'm going to get mine done instead
