Post by Bheinen74 »

Anybody here know if a RS bumper will fit on a legacy nicely?
Like the looks of the RS bumper, and in the future will replace my turbo bumper cause it is cracked, anybody have pictures if it fits

I've seen it done, but it's not all that wonderful looking, IMO.

It can be done.. there is some modification to the RS bumper sides where it meets the fenders to make it line up.. This is why i recomend getting a fiberglass repro from Rallitek or Teauges or some where else and then do it..A fiberglas is easier to workwith and little problems can be bondo-ed into nonexsistance.. Most custom body shops should not have any problem with this install. Drill holes for the stock bumper skin bolts and snaps.. the real hard part is removing the old bumper skin..

it can be done. with time and $$$
