right, so there is a possibility of being able to purchase a VT front bumper

its all good, but only has one bumper bracket.

my first question, is that ^ a problem? second and the more important one, can this be fitted fairly easily in the scheme of things to a Mk 1 1.1???

im pretty sure iv seen people on here do it before, but just wanting to know how easily its done. also will it look alright even though it will be the only VT part on the car?


Cheers for any help

Are you going to fit the rest of the kit becuase the front bumper was designed to line up with the front arches so if you dont have any might look a bit odd and not line up

Ive done this on my flatarch, just the front bumper and it looks alot better. Check my progress thread if u want to see how it looks mate.

Because the bumper is designed to stick out to meet with the VT arches, You have to cut about 1 inch off the inner fixing brackets on the bumper, drill a hole through the brackets and use this hole to cable tie the bumper to the car. Lined up first time for me
