Would really like to put a simple body kit on the car,if I went for le skirts and lips,what do I do with the rear bumber? Are there any simple bits for the back, or do I just get the lip sprayed yellow?? Or is there a kit that would cover the black on the front and back without too much hassle?? Thanks for reading

The zender rear lip is an easy to fit option and not over the top styling either, its just a slightly larger version then the standard one.

Look at my signature picture at the bottom of the rear bumper smile

Its an LE Jacob so those are just the standard LE skirts and lips, I added the rear lip to match the rest of the look and give the rear a bit more depth.

Really?

I bought our Zender kit from Mariusz and the only bit that wasn't an easy to fit item was the bloody rear bumper lip!! smile Nightmare to get it to fit over the standard bumper and then it kept coming free. Eventually tamed it into submission with aircraft sealant! Worth it in the end though!

i found it quite easty to fit, you just need to follow his instructions use some clamps and sponge to protect. clampt it till it clicks into place

couple of screws in the arch bit, plenty of adhesive, Screenbond/Tigerseal/Stikaflex etc leave overnight to cure then all good.

i did it with a 2nd bumper off the car though. if yours was on i would imagine it to be a pig of a job.

lets face it, propper zender stuff is top quality german gear, and i know alot of people use mariusz' products on here but they are cheap fibreglass copies that are obv. not going to stretch or fit as well frown

similar to my "joy-Tuning" LE side skirts.. fit like a glove NOT!

I agree Iain, AutoDS's stuff is good but I've got an original Zender front bumper, rear boot spoiler and skirts and the fit is like factory. In fact it is factory coz all the parts are stamped Fiat as well as Zender. smile

I tracked down a s/h Zender rear bumper lip months ago which I'm collecting at the Lakes Meet next weekend. I expect that to be a precise fit too but as Jaip says, they're supposed to be easier with the bumper off the car. smile
