Questions regarding front bumpers!

Hi people,

Some of you might have realised that I have been thinking a lot about front bumpers lately! Today I talked to the local agent and more than answers I got questions!! To make it worse, he told me that nothing came up when he searched for bumpers of the E85 model. Things started coming up when he looked at the E86 model. Can you help please?

1. Does an E85 model take an M sport and an Aero bumper even if they are of the E86 model?
2. Does it make any difference if I have the 2.0 SE model?
3. Prices I got are around 650 Euros for M and 480 Euros for Aero... not that cheap eh! :?

Any feedback is appreciated people... Thanks

1. Does an E85 model take an M sport and an Aero bumper even if they are of the E86 model? I'd say YES
2. Does it make any difference if I have the 2.0 SE model? No
3. Prices I got are around 650 Euros for M and 480 Euros for Aero... not that cheap eh! :? The AERO front bumper was about £300 last I asked about a month ago, brand new in primer

Any feedback is appreciated people... Thanks

Hope these help.
 
in mine opinion the E86 bumper also fit the e85. de hamann fit's both

it doens't matter you have an 2.0 body is al the same.

prices could be that high, i don't know i don't live in the uk/malta
 
NavidV is right there should be no reason why any of the parts should not fit your 2.0. One word of caution though it might be your dealer can not find the parts because they have been discontinued, especially with the Aero Bumper.
You might be better off starting to trawl through Ebay.
Various different ones here.

Thanks all for the feedback! Much appreciated. Guess I should not find any difficulty in buying either or.

It's just a matter of deciding which one for me and my wallet. I hope I will be posting soon some pictures ofo the new front!!! 8)

Thanks again!

Wish I knew more German as there are loads on here, so there must be plastic grills for the facelift... One of which I require. Do you just use google translate RichardG ?
 
That is usually what I do. Copy and paste the German text in Google translate! Usually it works good.
