I've just bought back and front bumpers from a scrapyard for €100 each. A bit steep but that's the going rate here I think. The places I asked said they very rarely broke polos. Quite a lucky find too as they were undamaged and in my colour.

Before I found them I thought about getting some in from england as they were cheaper but then there's £70 on top for shipping :(

Brand new would be double i'd say

A cat that makes you need a new radiator!? Whatever happened to the cross member inbetween?

New bumper from euro is about £120 genuine. From VW its £160

Spray job is about £100 as its a solid flash red - makes life so much easier

Radiator should be under £80 quid :)

Il get pics up later on today. Gti splitter seems fine. The cat went into the front lower middle grill and most of it splattered into the radiator hose or somin. Thats 2 cats Ive mowed in 2 weeks and they were both black :lol:

Think the first cat was unlucky but being black probably cursed you to hit the second black cat, god knows what you'll hit next!
