Will RS bumpers fit a DCI?

[Jonsey89]

Getting a dci this week and was wondering if the CRS bumpers are a direct swap? or are they too wide?

Also what other differences are there between the RS models and DCI....otther than bumpers, grill, CC mirrors, door strips and alloys?

Thanks

Rear will, front will need RS wings. There aren't many other external differences than those mentioned.

Ok thanks, so the RS wings are a straight swap and then the bumper will fit straight to them?

Thanks for the quick reply.

Yep would need the RS skirts to finish it off then though :rasp:

You can modify the front bumper to fit standard wings using a guide on here, you'll need to be a fully paid member to see it though.

and wheel arches too to complete the job

 

[Jonsey89]

What arches? the inner arches?

Not looking to spend alot just want to improve the looks abit.

Thanks.

tbh i wouldnt bother doing it with out the wings its the extra wideness that make it look good

To get the RS bumper on the front you'll need the grille, arch linings, matching wings and matching sideskirts. Or you can pay to get the front bumper "molded" into the shape and blend in with your current wings. With the wider wings youll proably also need spacers on the front wheels to make them stick out more..

Rear is a definate then and the front will depend if and when i can find all the needed parts in the right colour (silver) nice and cheap.....dont want to spend to much as its only really my daily driver (main car for a few months).

Thanks for the info guys.

Also, are the side bumpstrips removable in the way of clips? or glued etc? Can they just be swapped for some already colour coded ones easily enough?

Headlights the same or? Look the same in this thread here (to me at least): http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=409351

Will i need spacers for 172 alloys to get the same look? Assumingly the RS track is wider?

I dont want a rpelica i just want to make the dci look better and the rs's are a huge improvement on looks.

Thanks alot people

If you don't want a replica I wouldn't bother with the rs front bumper/wings/sideskirts as that's what you'll end up with.

i did a sort of half replica with my dci but didnt go down the rs bumpers or skirts route. i'm happy enough with it
