Has anybody done this?

It seems you can pick up the back box and tips for the VRS reasonably cheap, and they do look nice. I have a 1.9tdi 100bhp so presumably the figments are identical - its just a matter of making it fit with the standard bumper.

If anybody has done it pictures of how you adjusted your bumper are appreciated!

buy a vrs rear bumper. looks better and no chopping.

That would be the ideal solution, obviously. But I am not convinced they made one in my shade of blue (will have to work out the paint code to check this) and I can't really justify the money just for a nicer exhaust tip!

Paint a vrs bumper your colour? Put the effort in and it'll look good

Well okay - do lets presume I buy a VRS rear (and front) bumpers - how much might I expect it to cost to have them sprayed?

I paid 140 a bumper to get mine painted, it will depend on the painters, I used the folk who do the insurance work for BMW and I checked their previous work before giving them my custom. And they were top notch, updating me everyday and even opening on a Saturday so I could collect them.

isn't the paint code on the boot sticker?

What boot sticker? I had a quick look yesterday but couldn't see anything obvious...

Normally at the side of or inside the spare wheel well

Thank you! Most of the stick had faded, but I could just make out 9460 - Blue Magic Pearl

To be honest I have not seen many Fabia's in this colour - but I may be wrong!
