main difference with rear bumpers is the tow hooks. on the pre 97 there is no cover and the tow hooks hang out whereas the post 97 has a cover.

Wont looks odd really. post/pre 97 rear bumpers arent much different IMO

ok cheers, doesnt look much work to cut the bit out but is it worth it?

roughly how much do the bumpers cost, also is there much diffence with the post and pre 97 rear bumpers (wondering if id need both bumpers)

They are the same width. Post 97 looks nicer, its a bit smoother and doesn't look as dated

 posted on 16th Mar 06 at 16:07

Both the same width mate. Post 97 one looks the best by far imo

the opening to the bottom of bumper is different shape


Mertin

 posted on 16th Mar 06 at 16:01

whats the difference with the post 97 bumper? just the grill?


mwg

 posted on 16th Mar 06 at 15:58

you need a post 97 bumper to be able to change the grill without hacking the bumper up....
