Will they fit the 147? The GT style because I agree they look great.

Have a look there...and the one from there will fit...the original bumper from GT won't fit the 147.

One picture from today...

That is not the GT look like front bumper...it is the AutoDelta mix of GT and 147.

Re: Upgrading Bumpers to GTA (147)
Is the only bit stopping the GT (NOT GTA)bumper fitting the bump in the bottom of the 147's head lights, or is it a totaly different shape.
I might go down to the dealers and have a bit of a look with a tape measure and a keen eye.
Unless anyone else knows for sure it wont go on, with a bit of a fettle around the lights.

Re: Upgrading Bumpers to GTA (147)
haha i didn't see ya were in dublin there man!
I'll keep an eye out for ya so, she's an eyecatcher anyway

I've lowered mine 30-35mm on eibach springs, and she's really not all that bad over the speed bumps so long as ya take it easy
It's more the mountain roads ya need to be careful on.

Re: Upgrading Bumpers to GTA (147)
When you will be in Clondalkin maybe you will catch me.

And also you can see me sometimes near your work on M50 because when its sunny I all the times goi to Bray.

PS1. Are you working at night on the carpark or also day shifts?

PS2: About the lowering I will wait when they will finished the roads in Dublin because now its to scary for me

Re: Upgrading Bumpers to GTA (147)
yeah unfortunately I only work nights. Am looking for a new job, but no luck so far

Sure if you're ever planning on coming to the car park, let me know a day or 2 beforehand and I'll get ya some free parking passes
