iv just done my own 1.6 rear bumper with a cupra bumper you will need the adapters also around £80 to £90 ontop of the bumper and the time and hassle of putting it on

its not so the bumpers apart from the cupra r having the black lower by the exhaust. its the adapters you need for them to fit properly.i did my own and made sure i used torx screws under the bumper and around and fitted it without removing the wheels.

if you do decide to go ahead let me know il give you some tips on what to get and what not to. I never bothered getting the adapter for the exhaust as i just cut the half off where the exhaust would be showing (DIY job and greatly done by myself.

send me your e-mail address and i will e-mail you some pictures not joined up to photobucket yet.

adapters??? they are called guides which need switching, you have one either side on front of car and back, these guides are for what the bumper slides into and keeps them secure and inline with the rest of the body work, they are the same for the cupra facelift bumpers and cupra r

sorry 'brad' my mistake guides i meant and yes the adapters that fit onto the bumper tahts is what they call them at the dealers when i brought the cupra r ones from the dealer beleive me they did not fit, so had to take them back and get the cupra ones
