    No, i only have a series I car with series II bumpers, ive got no idea....

    Its designed to fit them all, you said it isnt, rieger (the people who make them) clearly state it will. You are wrong, fitment isnt an issue when you openly state they are wrong in saying it will fit all vehicles.
    Just a little project im working on

      You do realize that the newer plastic bumpers are longer then the older style, right? As in, plastic bumpers put on a older car need to have about 1 1/2" trimmed off where it meets the fender well. This is why it won't work.

      Fitting that bumper to your car will be way more difficult then just converting to plastic bumpers. Follow this:



      It explains the conversion in detail.
