Small Bumpers on MK2 Rocco

Post by isaidthephil »

I've recently seen the below picture of a MK2 Scirocco with small crome bumpers like that of the MK1 Golf.

I'm looking to do this conversion to mine but want to make sure im getting ti right.

Are these bumpers the same as the MK1 Golf or something else?

Cheers

Brilliant, thanks for the clarification.

Im guessing the fitments will be almost identical as everything else seems very similar beween the MK1 Golf and MK2 Rocco?

Sorry to be dumb. This is my first Rocco so still learning all the specs, Only worked on MK1 Golf's and Polo's in the past.

I would guess the same. They should fit

The car above has custom end caps tho which makes me think the Golf bumpers are to narrow.

Yeah, it was the end caps that were throwing me a little actually. Guessing the standard ones are fine but may just a leave a bit of gap or something.

The bumpers in your pic are the standard MK1 Golf bumpers aren they?
