Rob_B 0 Posted January 22, 2011 I'm afraid this is a bit of a what's it worth question... US spec front and rear bumpers in reasonable condition and a US spec tailgate in good condition except for a tiny bit of bubbling on the bottom lip of the numberplate plinth (US blank type thing). I know someone selling these but have no idea what they are worth? I dont want to put an advert up with his ridiculous prices! Any help is appreciated as always!

C488ADO 0 Posted January 24, 2011 Yes that's a brake light, so how much foe the front bumper?? Fancy the rear plate recess too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stingman123 0 Posted January 24, 2011 Let me have a price for the tailgate, I wants it............. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dickie 0 Posted January 24, 2011 would love a front bumper! are the rear bumpers deeper? i know they are on the mk3 golf. to do with impact protection laws or something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 0 Posted January 24, 2011 Fancy the rear plate recess too On US-cars not actually a recess, rather than it standing proud. But of course dmensions are those of a US-plate, so a UK plate would look odd (not high enough and too wide). are the rear bumpers deeper? No, neither front nor rear bumpers are deeper than EU ones, fortunately. So no parkbench drama like on US-Roccos :gag: Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stingman123 0 Posted January 24, 2011 does the tail gate have all the wiring for brakelight,heater, etc...? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonny777 0 Posted January 25, 2011 I'm not 100% sure still, is anyone actually selling a front/rear us bumper pair? :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C488ADO 0 Posted January 25, 2011 Unless someone has cut the loom there won't be any wiring in it.... But it doesn't matter as your loom would fit you would just need a plug for the brake light same as bulb loom in behind centre console blacktwin plug Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B41LEY 0 Posted January 25, 2011 Third brake light on mine! Standard 1992 uk registered car. Seller told me when i brought it that it was an "optional extra".SDC10476.JPG[/attachment:2t4n3oeo] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stingman123 0 Posted January 25, 2011 Love the look of that :luvlove: :luvlove: .....any prices on these bits as yet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seller told me when i brought it that it was an "optional extra".SDC10476.JPG[/attachment:33d6ojnw] Definitely not a UK option. Looks like either a US tailgate or someone's just added their own aftermarket third brake light. Sure someone with a keener eye will be able to confirm!

stingman123 0 Posted January 26, 2011 Did the US spec tailgate have the brakelight in the spoiler (Or did I see a mod?) Red square LED's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
