Difference In Bumpers

Recommended Posts

Hi guys been looking for a new front bumper for my d reg 205 GTI,

 

been told they changed in 1991 but would one fit on my car or is it important to find one from a similar age ?

 

Thanks

They fit, but they're different colours - if I've got it the right way round, early ones are 'grey' and late ones are 'black'. Sounds daft that I don't know, but my rally car has so many replacements all the time I've forgotten what's standard or whether it'd had a complete new black set at some point!

 

Look a bit odd if you don't swap all the side trims at the same time.

As above- pre 1991 is grey, post 1991 is black.

Sorry for bringing this up again , but i assume its better than opening a new thread :

all 205 dumpers are the same ? will a normal 205 1.4 fit a 1992 GTI ?

thanks

it will fit but the end is the wrong shape due to the arch trim. a base model can be trimmed down to fit but a gti will leave a big gap on a base model.
