  • RS2 replica bumper.

    I'm wondering if anyone has ever bought and successfully fitted an RS2 replica front bumper on here?
    I'm interested in buying one off flea bay as it almost seems cheaper than buying a used S2 bumper, which I would more than likely have to paint anyway.
    There's one company selling RS2 plastic bumpers with indicator and fogs lights gap shaped to suit the V6/S2 type.
    Would I be right to assume the plastic bumper would be better than the fibreglass type?

    I bought one of those abs rs2 bumpers, they are very thin, and will need reinforcement before fitting, but for the money they seem to be good value. I will be fitting it to the s2.

      Ah that's good to know.
      So as long as it was supported from sagging and going out of shape,you reckon it's a good enough fit.

          Exactly. I am going to support it with extra abs and aluminium, to prevent the usual sagging thats even present on oem bumpers.

            Good to know Rocco
            Yours looks perfect.

            @irishS2.
            Never thought a standard one would have sagged, but it makes me feel more confident buying a replica after all the comments
