    Anyone bought any bumpers from either GSF or ECP - any good or dodgy fit?

    Helped someone fit the small bumpers from GSF.........there were ok but not great and needed a little bending to fit.

    ive had a few gsf bumpers over the years..no problems ,good fit for the money ,and i do have genuine ones to compare
    one thing about em is they DONT have the molding seam that vw ones have at the corners

    I tried some a few years back and the pattern ones aren't a great fit.

    Hmmm mixed reactions but sounds like worth the saving if buying new. Will probably give ECP a try unless I come across some cheap VAG jobs. Thanks chaps ;)

    Go to GSF for them - i've had 2 sets of gsf bumpers, both been superb, and i've had genuine ones, and the genuine ones werent any better quality, well certainly not to justify the extra cost anyway.

    I've bought ECP bumpers and GSF ones too, cant see much difference in them to the genuine ones, none that'd make much of a difference. they fit OK the quality of moulding is Ok, texture is even colour and trims are ok. You'd be pushed to tell the difference on a car (if fitted straight) considering the difference in price (80 quid for a genuine, 20 for a ECP) then fuck it, good enough for me. I need a fresh set every year as I keep hitting stuff anyway. :lol:
