    Question Alertative Front Bumper For mk2 Astra?

    Will any other front bumpers of a Vauxhall fit a mk2 Astra?

    Ive seen a Mk2 with a Mk3 GSi bumpers on.
    They will fit but would need modding I would think...speak to Cris Rose.

    Mk3 GSi front bumper is the only one that will fit straight on.

    others will require serious work to fit, manufacturing mounting points, reducing or increasing size, shaging poile shapes - lot of work.


    Does anyone still remember me?

    i have offered a GSi rear bumper up to mine, it REALLY didn't suit, it curves in way too many directions it just looks wrong

    The white bumper is an 'Animal' one from custom autofashion. Doesn't look very good IMO. Why not get a splitter off another car and graft it onto the GTE front? Used to have a SEAT splitter on mine. Looked cool but needed a fair bit of work to fit.

    Anybody know how much the animal bumper is, I want something a bit radical.

    ANIMAL FRONT BUMPER

    They cost £160 inc VAT + fittings, I 've just ordered one for mine along with M3 skirts and EVO 5 vents (will post pic when all fitted).

    The only downside to the Animal is that only the front bumper is in production at the moment. Rear bumper,. skirts, grill and spoiler are all on the way but no-one knows when, even autofashion are a bit vague about it.

    Or if you were really feeling mad and wanted something that looks like it eats other cars for breakfast go for the EXTERMINATOR 5 front bumper from Dawsons - www.dawsons-cars.co.uk

    I think that bumper looks feckin hideous and totally ruins the mk2.
    I only realised I was dyslexic when I turned up at a toga party dressed as a goat...........

    Think they have got some tinting film on them. Look quite good, but perhaps the idicators are slightly too dark.
