may sound like a strange question, but will a fiesta mk3 standard rear bumper fit on the front of the car? would like to know because if it does I can relocate the number plate to make the front look smoother. |

Give it a try as its only 2 bolts and a few screws on the arches. |

If i remember correctly the front bumper is a bit of a pain to remove :\ this is what it could look like ![]() |

When i pulled mine off it was easy, only thing you will have to worry about is if the nuts have rusted on. |

Yes the number plate light will need to be removed and smoothed over. Ive had a close inspection of both bumpers and i think the front bumper is deeper so doubt it would work. instead of removing both bumpers I will take some measurements to save wasting my time. Glad you like the silver fiesta, its mine ![]() |

Probs easier to fibreglass over the front bumper and then respray it in dark satin grey or the same colour as the car |

are the bumpers nobly plastic like the wing mirrors? If s i can imagine it being hard to blend it in if you did smooth it over. |

I did consider fiberglassing/fillering but i wont be able to blend it with the texture of the bumper unless i smoothed the whole bumper. |

I though they was smooth anyway? I know the newer poverty spec bumpers are colour coded and smooth, so presumed they all are lol. |

my bumpers have a textured finish not like the newer fiestas. Poverty spec is the way forward! gonna have a go at smoothing the front bumper sometime think I can do it as ive done harder stuff on cars. |
