In need of a 2005-2007 front bumper and thought I may just buy one from SMK http://www.smk-tuning.com/?id=7&prodID=347 Anybody tried their products and care to comment on either the quality/styling/etc? If you think that I will spoil the car with one of these :nono: let me know - I will not be offended! If there are other aftermarket ones you like - feel free to recommend. In the event someone has a genuine bumper, happy to consider purchasing from you. (Need the foglights as well).

Thanks guys. The e-bay ones are 2001 - 2004, plus one of the sellers cannot be bothered to respond. Chad, much appreciated - please PM.

Sorry Badger - you are correct. Just found out that I need all 3 radiators as well ------ :mad: plus the dozey car has gone into power save mode and will not start. My day is getting better!

might be a silly thing to say, but do you know the front headlamp wipers, my s60 has got the jets and not the wipers. would this affect whether the bumper will fit or not. Again sorry if this is a stupid question.

[quote=S Singh;216039] Again sorry if this is a stupid question.[/quote] It is NOT a stupid question - it is in fact a good spot. There are so many variants on the bumpers that people end up buying the wrong ones. Simple eg [LIST] [*]chrome strips [*]no chrome strips [*]moulding runs all way around [*]moulding only partially on ends [*]clip on moulding [*]in-situ moulding [*]headlamp washers [*]no headlamp washers [*]headlamp wipers [*]no headlamp wipers [/LIST] we have not even started to discuss [LIST] [*]hanging points [*]carriers [*]whether the fog llights are interchangeable [*]grill arperture and changing [/LIST] Do you get the impression - I need to get out more :shifty:
