Doesn't it work out cheaper to buy a Touran bumper? I've seen dented Touran bumpers on eBay for around £35 but they look non repairable, has anyone here ever repaired a smashed bumper? Also, why do most of the listings have the grill inserts removed before listing them?

Most of the touran bumpers Iv seen are 150 upwards and then u need the grills etc after that. Touran fronts are lovely tho. Really suit the caddy.

I prefer the van bumper smoothed out, so many have the touran front these days,

Cheers mate. Its needing painted but not sure whether to keep it or go down the touran route. Like the newer shape Touran but it needs wings, bonnet, lights etc.
