Bit of a 5th gen rear bumper

Post by NafemanNathan » Mon Jun 30, 2014 1:42 pm

Ideally someone with a knackered rear 5th gen bumper (Can be UKDM EUDM) destined to end up in a skip can cut me this much from it, from this location (the yellow boundary line, not the hole itself)...

Obviously it'd be no good to me if your bumper is knackered in the same location though ;-)

Cheers :)

:facepalm: :lol:

Ok EUDM would be fine ;-) :P

Cheers duck, I was hoping to have it done for the national meet, but if I'm still looking then I'll take you up on your offer :)

A mirrored section could still be cut ;)

I've not examined it actually, but I assumed being there is subtle curavture that there might also be a subtle twist (top having a larger radius that the bottom), and being that someone might not necessarily be cutting it that accurately I thought it'd be easier/safer to cut it from the same side to assure I do definitely get the right contour.

The title of this thread reads like a cutting insult. That is all.

To clarify, I have used it in a sentence:

That Nathan, he's a bit of a 5th gen rear bumper isn't he :roll:

But in your instance it should read "That twonk that hit you is obviously a bit of a 4th gen rear bumper" :tosser:

He certainly had a bit of a 4th gen rear bumper on the front of his Corsa afterwards :x
