    Front Bumper Supply Issue

    It's 35 miles to the dealer, why should I pay for the fuel there and back and there and back? Besides it will be the lowest mileage RS available at this rate!!!

    temporarily removing cup spoiler? Any ideas?

    5yr + vinyl will be fine. Just make sure it big enough to cover the hole and tight so that it doesn't sag in the middle. Easily found in all colours on eBay. Good luck

    temporarily removing cup spoiler? Any ideas?

    If its only a temp thing put a vinyl sticker over each hole, easily removed should you wish to re fit and will keep the rain out.

    So had a phone call today from Renault. Bad news for anyone waiting for a bumper. Expected delivery to France is the middle of June! So I'll be looking at end of June before its in the UK, at lifestyle Renault, sprayed and on the car. Probably have a flat battery by then.....
