I am thinking of getting a big bumper set for a '79 rabbit. Anyone have some pictures of what it would look like??

Heres one of a guy in my town. It's an 81 with a 92 big bumper and the rest is from a Cabby Kit

I've seen that 16v Bunny driving around. It is absolutely Beautiful. It is my favorite A1.

I'm not sure if he was at Waterwagens yesterday, but I'm sure he'll be at the GCVWS

how hard is it to fit a big bumper kit on an 88 cabriolet?

Re: your big bumper rabbit pics please (wicked1)

You just have to shave the inside corners to get a good fit around the fenders. The rear bumper has to be modified by cutting it to make up for the more narrow A1 rear

here's one that was for sale a while ago , it was a 79' gti too (ahhh... luckily i live in canada where we got 79 and 80 gti's). since there are so many locals in this thread, does anyone know what happened to this car? i know it didn't start (supposedly bad starter motor) and the guy was asking around 3000.

edit=>pic

this was my buddies car.. it actually got parted out because he blew the engine and didn't wanna fix it plus the owner before him changed the dash and never put the vin tag back on the dash so it was risky driving it around...The car was in preatty good shape and he wanted like $2000 before he blew the engine...

so what happened to the shell now?
edit=> oops, read "parted out" as parked out... so i'm guessing there's not much left? thats too bad, that thing looked pretty sweet in the pic, and good price too.

Re: your big bumper rabbit pics please (confutation'83)

yah... that does make me sad... especially since i actually called about the car and he told me it was sold but that if i showed up at his house with cash he'd give it to me... months later and stilll looking for the same thing.

I am more of a fan of the big bumper on Jettas. Good luck with your Rabbit!
