Fitting a MkII GT3 bumper / pu to 2002 C2

[brucey]

Hi all.

I am thinking about fitting the front fender from a MkII GT3 to my facelift 2002 C2. I believe this is the same one from the aerokit II.

I have done a search and read the TB for the aerokit II but still have a query.

Pictures of the GT3 bumper I am looking at show a large central ari intake (not filled in). On the C2 normal bumper there's a panel in there as there is no central cooler. Does this central intake matter and is it simply covered by a panel than comes off the standard bumper....or is the one for the C2 in the aerokit different, without a central hole?

Thanks for any advice :)

Oh - also in the TBS - what does 'convert' in the context of the bumper panels mean? Perhap this is the bit that suggests something gets transferred from the existing bumper to the GT3 one??

There is no difference in the two fenders you speak of. The fenders are not different between an aerokit car and a non-aerokit car - only the bumpers, sideskirts, and read spoiler.

If you do not have a center radiator then leave the plug in place.

Thanks Loren

THere may be a lnguage thing here - sorry!

I mean front BUMPER. This is what I wanting to fit to my 2 from a GT3 II.

The one I have sen has a central air dam - and I'm wondering how this is 'closed off' when fitted to a C2.

When you say 'leave the plug in place' do you mean this is on the car at present or that it's parts of the GT3 front PU? The pictures of the one I am byong just show a big gap in the centre.

Thanks again.

If you buy the factory aerokit it comes with the plug installed and you remove the plug if you have the 3rd radiator.

If you have one without a plug then perhaps you can find someone with a plug they removed or even better add a 3rd radiator.
