[blackgti20th]

My nephews GTI (formerly my GTI) is a 20th anniversary edition.
Well as crazy as this sounds, a dog at his school chewed the front bumper and jumped on it putting several scratches in it, the school's insurance is paying for the repair - cutting him check for estimate amount.
rule #1, the car in question

He asked what he should do, here are the choices:

I really don't care what the hell you do with it. It's his car, make him chose.
But I have to say that is freakin helarous. What kind of dog was it?
Because I have to say that would be a better poll.
Guess what kind of dog chewed up the bumper on my nephews GTI?
A: APBT (American Pit Bull Terrier)
B: Rottweiler
C: Jack Russel Terrier
D: Australian Shepherd

European front bumper with European 25th AE lip.
Also, please put the factory wheels back on.

If this was an E30 people would be all over it, say no to double standards

and god forbid someone with a Miata ask something about a bumper here. the thread would be 6 pages long by now.
To OP...go with the R32 since they are gonna pay for it. you could sell it and buy 2 bumpers or side skirts http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Are you serious?... Do you understand what the Car Lounge is? It's a place for VW enthusiasts to talk about cars other than VW's, or new VW's that are coming out. It is not a place where MKIV owners can post their various "Which wheels/bumper/body kit/tint/ICE/sunglasses holder should I get?" topics... Same goes for MKI/II/III/V owners.
All in all, I feel this topic belongs better in the MKIV forum.

do you know what the car lounge is? apparently not from your post

anyways back on topic...I say go for the stock bumper again. either way it will cost about the same between 20th bumper and lip or just the r32 bumper alone.

Ok, then what is the Car Lounge? From its description:
The lounge for all things automotive - news, updates, car detailing, car purchasing and more from the Car Lounge to our affiliate websites.
Sounds pretty close to what I described above...
Oh, hey, look, this got moved to the 337/20th Forum. I guess someone agrees with me...

Everyone's been real nice...
I like the MKV bumpers.

Re: (yem_icculus)

I think you should go with the new RXS bumper from Dubtechnik:

Would look hot with those wheels. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

RXS bumper FTW !!!
and get that thing lowered STAT !

 

[Cynic65]

Re: Help: MK4 GTI front bumper choices (element256)

The car will look strange with an R32 or RSX front and 20th rear. If you are only doing the front, get a replacement 20th. Otherwise replace front and rear with R32 or RSX.

you're right it does belong in the 20th forum cause it will get more hits. I was just busting your balls cause the car lounge is a place for all car enthusists and doesn't revolve around vw as you said.
