*sigh*
The MK1 bumper is completely different than the bumper CrazyTalk now has, which is an MK2. The MK1 and pre98 match up better than the MK2 and 98+. The 98+ bumper is a closer match to the pre98/MK1 bumper than it is an MK2. But then again, this is all my opinion from what I have seen in pictures. :shrug:
trust me, the MK1 bumper had the same fitment issues the Mk2 bumper has that crazytalk has posted in pictures. The last person who owned that car had cut the headlight panel and the front bumper core support just like crazytalk did to make the bumper fit, obviously its a little different because its between first and 2nd gen car's but the fitment issues are the same, right around the headlights and just a little short of the fenders.
When Mark brought that green car to bagged, the bumper was being held on by bungee cords because the mounting points to the fenders (just like on crazytalk's pictures) were over an inch short. There are more angles for crazytalk to deal with than if it were an mk1, but IMO the best way to go about making that work is doing some molding/fiberglassing, not using body filler like someone else in this thread suggested. I am interested to see what crazytalk ends up doing to this bumper.
