I have an Irmscher front bumper fitted to my estate and i'm about to fit an Irmscher rear bumper and tailgate but im not sure if I like it. So what do I do, do I fit the Irmscher bumper or do I get a facelift estate rear bumper and facelift rubbing strips for the rear panels to match the facelift ones fitted to the doors and front wings. Some pics

took me a couple of goes to spot the difference, but i think the Irmscher ones have it. 8-) Even make me seriously think about wanting an estate too!
Yikes. did i really say that. i am my dad. :O
but will you need the irmy boxes to match now?.. it'll never end.....mwuah aha
-
My vote is cast: "Irmy" for sure!....`looks lovely. :y
-
I think I would fit the irmscher personally, but as someone said it will be the thin end of the wedge... lol
Lots more bits possible!
-
ditto prefer the irmscher ;D ;D :y :y :y
-

Ive got most of them, wooden steering wheel and gear lever x2, front and rear bumpers, side skirts and if I wanted to fit them door rubbing strips :y
-
Go on Pete you know you wanna. ;D
-
Oddly, I think I prefer the std rear :-/
-
From what i can see the irmy rear bumper aint that much different from a facelift bumper........ok you dont have the bit mounted on the tailgate on a facelift estate.....the rear reflectors are in a different place and you dont have the chrome strip.......but shape wise looks very similar.
-
I think the irmscher rear bumper and tailgate will blend nicely with the facelift bump strips.....so do it.
-
Design is a personal taste..Go after your senses..
-
Irmscher :y

I think I do thats why its taken so long to swap the bumpers.
-
sorry to rock the boat, but i prefer the standard one :-[
-

if you remove the rear parking sensor,(tow bar) any of them will look good. :)
