Hi folks, I was looking at a rear bumper from a 2003 model (which I assume is a facelift as it was all one colour rather than having a big black bit) but it doesn't have a cut out for the twin pipes, will if fit right or am I looking at one from a model with a different exhaust?

Cheers,
Jay

If you trying to fit the facelift Cupra bumper on an old spec cupra then it should have the shape already cut to go over the twin pipes. If it is not there, then it is not a cupra bumper just a body coloured verson of a standard bumper which i think they put on the leons from 2003

I wondered if that was the case.

I'm never gonna find any facelift Cupra or Cupra R bumpers :(

yeah they did those on the SX version when they came out IIRC

:D

They fitted them to the SE spec too, like mine... here it is, next to a LCR. Apologies for the crappy pic, it was taken with my phone, but hopefully it gives you the idea...
