How to change the front bumper splitter on a 2005 Octavia Sport?

Featured Replies

Morning!

To cut to the chase, someone??? gave the front of my car a nugde in a Tesco car park last summer and damaged the front bumper splitter. Now I've managed to get hold of a brand new one including grilles for £100 from ebay and already painted, but I'm looking at how I get the old one off and get the new one on, i.e what type of glue is needed etc?

This is the bumper spoiler in question: (not where I got it from though)

Anyone??????

One for a bodyshop I'd say, unless you've got skills/tools in that area?

As you'll need to remove the existing damaged section first.

As for adhesion of the new one, again one for a specialist so you have confidence that it'll stick, cure and stay on! Apart from me replying with a vague 'bodyshop strength glue/epoxy' with isn't going to help you much....
