Not a bad kit for a D2... Could do with a couple more angles, but a promising start.

It's made from fibreglass by company in Latvia that I used to work in for a short while I will see if I can get more pictures.

And a price? Maybe your missus can bring some back in her handbag!

Now that's an aftermarket D2 front bumper that actually looks good.

Well it looks like they don't want to sell anything or have way too much job as I haven't got response to my e-mail.

Shipping seems to be a bit costly, estimate from DHL came at £1200 and no that's not a mistake with extra 0 at the end.

Mike if you or anybody else is interested I should be able to arrange alternative delivery method and it should not be more then £200 for bumper delivered to my door or possibly to yours.

I have to say I quite like it but it is a FL bumper and and would not fit mine quite right. They also do fibreglass copies of stock bumper for both PF and FL.




If anybody is interested let me know and I will phone them to check for more details and look in shipping details.

And some other bits
