facelifting a leon 1.8T sport

[MrTrEv]

Hi guys I have just brought myself a 2001 leon 1.8T 20v which the dealer described as the sport model and I would like to replace the original bumpers with the cupra bumpers as they look alot better in my opinion.
Just wondering if anyone knows where to buy direct replacement bumpers for my model.
I've looked on ebay but the one seller who did reply back to me said that they may need some adjusting to be made to fit so I wasn't to keen on messing around trying to bodge them on.
Also if anyone knows where to get hold of some white dials aswell that would be appreciated.
Many thanks

not to sure on the bumpers mate but you can pick the white dials up on ebay

I'm pretty sure the white dials on ebay won't fit the turbo as they only go up to 140mph

Facelift bumpers fit straight on with new guide profiles and splash shield extensions

sorry to seem dim but what are guide profiles?

The plastic bits that go under the wings that the bumper locates into.

There about £6-7 each

Jesus, it wasnt cheap when they posted that so i am guessing it isn't much cheaper now

The door moldings are now £40 each for the fronts and £35 each for the rears
