Hi all how easy is it to fit the bumpers both front and back from the Mk 3 polo on to a Mk 2 polo. thanks.

Ease of fitting : Good.
Ease of Getting them to look right: Bad.

Its very difficult to get them to look right, particularly the front bumper as the mk3 front end is alot more curved than the mk2.

by the way is it a coupe or hatchy? (squareback) both as hard as they are the same i thik?!

example of mine.....

mine is a hatchy. so wot work needs to be done then in order to look right and fit gd.

kris im feeling them plates mate!!!!!

the bumpers have to be compleately reshaped really to get them to look this good (not being big headed by the way :p) as Gareth said.... the front of the MK3 is alot rounder, u cant tell till u hold the bumper on, so to get it to sight straight and lookin decent u got to cut the roundness out, and then because u cut the roundness out... the bumper overhangs the wheel arches then!! :s.... so u got to reshape the side of the bumper too.... and all this is how it looks wen finished,.,,, but the main thing is gettin the originall brackets on....

the best thing is to add me on MSN if you got it.,.. better if you ask questions and i answer.,... [email protected]

or PM me!

Tom.... im feeling the plates too!!

kris, was the back one a direct swap?? Im getting rs2 bumpers now- but i prefer your back bumper.
