wanted a matching pair (front and rear) 131 plastic bumpers.
doesn't matter if they're from sport or super. if they're from sport, a set of plastic arch trims and a front spoiler would be nice.
used or new.

please do. thanks in advance.

i know i can get a set of chrome bumpers from yagmur but i'm fed up with polishing chrome. another problem with chrome bumpers is that even a smallest dent is impossible to straighten properly. and they're not cheap either

I?m also fitting a complete plastic set from my old super, i think it suits the series 3 better than the chrome ones with plastic edges. The arch trims from a sport fit and goes with the series 3 super side trims so well, i wonder why Fiat didn?t fit that as standart..

We have a few spare bumpers, i think 2 sets of plastic ones, but they are not in a very good conditon a and we are keeping them, bacause we have 2 cars running in a capital city traffic, you know what i mean?
But i?ll have those from my CL free when i change them and also one brand new front "CL type"  I?ll pick this one up and then make a picture of all three for you to see the condition.

When i was in Turkey last week i saw 131s with a fiberglass? bumper front & rear with a little lip spoiler built in also complete sill covers that went up the rear arch about 200mm, so i would contact Yagmur about these because imo they looked great.

i saw a 131 that was crashed up the rear (sorry gay131lover we miss you) & thats how i think they were made of fiberglass so they should be cheap & your car will look cool djape1977.

frankly, i'm open to suggestions and proposals as long as they're practical.
i haven't been able to find any new or used bumpers for 131 in usable condition in my part of the world.
yagmur can provide chrome bumpers at a price of 150e a pair. with shipping it would be something like 200-250e. too expensive for something i don't really like.
a set of plastic bumpers and arch trims for a sport would be my first choice. i'd even buy damaged bumpers since i'm quite capable to repait and repaint 'em and return them to their former glory.
i can also get a pair of new chrome bumpers for zastava 128 which are very simmilar to 131 ones for something like 80e per pair. if i can't get exactly what i want than i'll go for the cheapest version of what i must use.


btw, what do you think about these bumpers? new 80e a pair, same dimensions as 131, just a bit diferent plastic ends and a licence plate light in the rear one
