lunalupi Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Not without some other body work - Lupo GTIs have wider arches. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 ..and diffrent headlamps, side lights, sills, rear panels, rear bumper...All of which have to be changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 If you want a gti style bumper you could try the rieger bumper for the normal lupo. I think this is the most similar bumper to the real thing on the market. It does look good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subtle modder Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 somebody should make a 'sticky' topic on this subject as there has been so many questions on it basically it can be done but its alot of work and as said above its far easier to fit the reiger lower bumper but its up to youwayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 (edited) Scrap yard? but if your going to have to get it painted and repaired you might as well buy a rieger lower lip and get that painted?

vinjo Posted November 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 (edited) Scrap yard? but if your going to have to get it painted and repaired you might as well buy a rieger lower lip and get that painted?as i mentioned, the gap is jsut under the grill and beside to VW logo....(sorry, tried many times to post pics, but cant')can i just change the top of part of bumper?? is lupo's bumper can be separate??if cant.....will is worth to paint and repair it only?? or put rieger lower lip at the same time??Thanks Edited November 4, 2005 by vinjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 the bumpers are two seperate bits, lower and upper i didnt realise where the damage was, you must have been editing your post when i last posted. Well why don't you just replace the top half then and get a rieger lower while your at it? if its only a 5cm gap it could probably wait a little while longer while you save that bit of extra money and you can get both bits of the bumper sprayed at the same time.

The subtle modder Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 right a gti bumper as i said is possible without doubt but and its a big but you will need a very confident bodyshop and off course a gti bumper for them to cut up and shape but the end result would be goodit really depends how much you want to spend (it will cost a tidy penny for that work) and how far you want to gowayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
