Title: Irmscher rear bumper fitted
Post by: Elite Pete on 25 May 2008, 09:12:58
Had a busy day yesterday fitting the Irmscher rear bumper and thought while I was at it I would take the rear wing liners out and have a good clean. I also sprayed loads of waxoyl under the arches and rear panel for preventitive reasons. I will adjust the front bumper in the week as the fit isn't brilliant but I really wanted to get the front bumper painted for the Keswick meet but don't think I will have the time :(

Is it the pre-facelift irmscher saloon bumper, if so do you have all the fittings ie; there is a small metal bracket which connects the wheel arch liner to the bumper and when fitted it also pushes the bumper out slightly and makes it fit a lot better, if you need me to take some photo's of mine let me know :y

Thanks Jim :y

The bumper is for my estate but I had to cut the original brackets because of rusty nuts :o but made some more. The fit of the rear bumper is so much better than the front one.

I have toyed with the idea of a Miggy estate for a while but not fancied one enough to end up buying one, but I must admit your car looks well matey.  Nice colour as well.  I think the combination with those wheels and rear window spoiler has now made my mind up.

I Want One.   :y :y

Nice job there matey.  Well done.   :y :y :y
