After picking up a GSi front bumper from the scrappy last week and rubbing it down I tried fitting it.

It is a really tight fit trying to screw the top mounts of the bumper to the body work and where the bumper fits under the lights round to the front arches, it seems to stick out and not be a good fit.

I removed the metal bar from the car (behind the bumer) and tried refitting the bumper. The top mounts seemed to screw down easier but still nowhere near as good as my sport bumper. And no difference against the lights to arches.

Anyone had this problem? It doesnt seem to be a good fit at all. I wondered if there was anything I had to do previous to get it sitting flush e.t.c?

Thanks in advance

i have got a GSi, and the bumper has never ever fitted properly. You can ask pretty much anyone who has got or has owned a GSi bumper...and they do not fit properly, ever!
