Not sure if this is in the right section? I'm sure someone will correct me. Anyway, I'm wanting to swap with someone my BTCC rear bumper with Single side exit exhaust cut out with Standard FR TDi backbox with the twin round pipes. I really want the centre exit K1 style exhaust but I'm trying to avoid having to buy a bumper and exhaust and paint it! Ideally I'd like to swap if someone is after my style (maybe fitting a tow bar etc as on one of the new posts I found). It would have to be emotion red to save money painting too. Thanks

Might be wrong but i think the bottom section of the bumper can be replaced. if it does you could get the k1 part and leave it unpainted mines not painted

Love the car mate! It looks LOW! I've tried asking on here if u can buy just the balance at the bottom but no-ones replied and I couldn't see it on a parts picture of the BTCC bumper which made me think you had to buy the full thing again. I'm sure a body shop could sort it with little fuss. As for the paint, yours looks great, in fact it actually does look painted. My wifes best mate owns a signs shop and they do car wraps so I could even get here to just put vinyl on the new valance if I manage to get one. I'll look at my bumper tomorrow and see if it looks like it can come off (the valance). At least then I'd just need to k1 exhaust which I'm sure on Sere Seat on here it was about £280? Thanks for the reply Who Me to my first ever thread!

The standard fr and cupra bumpers the lower valance can be bought seperate but on the BTCC bumper its one piece and cannot be bought seperate.

Thanks for the info Kevs FR, I was afraid it was a one piece btcc bumper. I'll go see about getting it modified if it won't cost that much if I can't manage to get a "swap". I like the r32look, it's a bit like the new Cupra R back bumper. Thanks again.
