Nelson_R32 Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 The more I see pictures of them, the more I want one! I have the chance to buy one for £50.00 and I can get it sprayed and fitted for £20.00. The think that worries me is that it doesn't stick out as much as an S-line one so I'm worried it'll loose the nice sleek line of the car The problem with brochure shots is that they don't give you an accurate idea of it will look like Or I could just ditch the whole idea and keep saving towards a DTM Retrofit kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I think it looks good, and for that sort of money it has to be a bargain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sponge Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I like the new website Nelson. Some very nice pictures on it. How come the headlight washer system doesn't fit the S-Line bumper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I'll tell everyone why everything I usually sell is going to website format when I'm ready to launch it The headlight Retrofit kit is designed for DTM bumper but the parts also apply to a normal B7 bumper, the S-line bumper has different headlight washer jets and bumper caps. You could obviously use this kit and buy the additional S-line bits Which will still work out cheaper Good thing about that kit is you know you've got EVERYTHING you need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDiAvant Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 So what would be the price for the S-Line bumper kit? Just thinking about the next retrofit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Go for it Nelson, for £70 quid it's not like it'll break the bank if you don't like it. IMO it's better than the S-Line valance and probably a little more exclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewcam Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I say go for it Nelson. I have seen that pic before of the white one on Audiworld i think. Its cheap enough to bin if you don't like it but i think it looks good and like P_G says exclusivity !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techieboy Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Nelson, Does this fit the S-Line bumper? I tried to order one of these as a dealer fit option when I ordered the S-Line special edition and the dealer said it wouldn't fit. If it does fit, have you got any idea about the fitting? Does the existing valance in the S-Line bumper just pull out or does it involve cutting? If it's good to go, I'll order one through your site. Cheers, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson_R32 Posted August 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Matt, the rear valance is a direct replacement for the 4cyl TDi standard and S-line rear bumpers (as they are the same, apart from the valance itself) so yes it will fit The valance just clips in - no drilling/riveting reqiured although you will need to get it painted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
