When you are in touch with them you can tell them the picture is of a bumper off a standard leon NOT a cupra... might explain why they are painted black magic...

yeah yeah yeah i saw the back bumper is a standart one , but i care only the front bumper =))) i can sell the back bumper...

These bumpers exist because of people who buy a new Leon and get the Aero kit fitted by the dealer.

The dealer just removes the existing bumpers and sells them on for next to nothing, cos I guess some money is better than having to store/dispose of them.

Hello again, well i read somewhere that dealerships cant send stuff back so they normally just sell it on the quite and use money for staff party's and beer money, if you think about it the bumpers have already been bought with the car they came off so it = 100% profit for them (off the books)

I also think if u ask the dealer when u upgrade your bumper that you are entitled to take the bumper they removed off for free after all it is yours.

One of my mates did similar to that when he ordered a car with optional alloys.

The car had steels as standard and he paid £500 extra for a set of dealer fit alloys. He ended up asking to keep the steel wheels which they gave him after a bit of argueing, after all he has paid for them in the retail price of the car itself.
