    rolleyes My latest bumper modification

    So, after a small deviation from the road on Saturday night, I now have a self-styled front bumper on my vectra.

    D'oh!

    Does anyone know if the non-genuine OE spec bumper skins on ebay are any good? Or is it worth holding out for a genuine one to come up second hand?
    Also does a facelift signum bumper fit the vectra?

    Mmm VXR would be nice..

    I have patched it up for now with some ally and rivets, and blanked out where the fog goes - will do for the rest of winter I think.
    Right, ebay time lol.

    I would wait for an original spec bumper to come along, and if VXR or XP one comes along in that time, the happy days.

    Could always buy an aftermarket front bumper, test fit it, and if it fits well then get it sprayed.
