GT squareback bumpers, worth?

Post by quinny »

Hello all.

I'm trying to figure out how much a set of GT squareback bumpers are worth.

I know that a normal front bumper from my local GSF delaer is in the region of £50.00.

I didn't even know that the squareback GT's had red tripes but just checked and mine does, and some one wants them.

I don't knowhow much they go for so can someone please enligthen me?

Bumpers are all exactly the same. So GTs are the very same as a 1.0 Fox.

The only difference is a bit of red tape, which you can put on yourself these days for a couple of quid

Bumpers cost a fiver from my scrapper

That's a bit of a s**t then.

The G40 bumpers are different. they have the air scoop which has been smashed off of mine for some unknown reason.

I've just phoned two of my local breakers and they both want £20.00 per bumper off a 2F, or £15.00 a bumper for an 86C.

The G40 intercooler scoop is not part of the front bumber, its a seperate part just like the plastic radiator surround.
