I've just seen some pics of the new m. schumacher edition Stilo and i really like the new front bumper. I just wanted to know if my fiat dealer will be able to order one for me or if he won't 'cause i havn't got a schumacher Stilo???

I think the bumper is part of the Abarth bodykit for the Stilo. James_M told me this and he knows his stuff I think its a really nice front bumper for the Stilo too. You might have to buy the whole kit if going through the dealers (Not 100% sure) but they have been on Ebay a couple of times- could be worth checking on there from time to time.

I'll look it up then,
thanks a bunch

Does anyone have a pic that shows the difference, because all the pics I have found of what I assume to be a Schumacher Stilo have had exactly the same bumpers as the Abarth, unless I'm missing something.

isnt the shumacher stilo with a Zender kit? cuz im sure thats what it says in AutoCar, ill check

EDIT: yep its a zender

proof here

I think you can get that bumper in the new Brio Catalogue.

The different bumper is availble from the new biro catalogue it costs £276 inc vat and thats primed ready for painting. There is also a different back bumper that is on the MS edition stilo that is the same price and then the new sideskirts are £155 so quite a lot of money for the full kit!

Oh yeah and dont forget the rear spoiler for £90 as well

Those rear bumpers !

im not too sure about them, I think they make the back end look a bit too square, I like the front bumper though. Not that I would change mine for one, as I don't think they are different enough to whats already on there especially on a dark colour Stilo.. Maybe on a light colour like White, Silver or red etc it may warrant the price but not for me .
Its a shame they had to use Schumachers' name on that car. Would have been far more appealing if it was Ayrton Senna..

They should have done a stilo sport GT or something and stuck a 3 litre turbo in it and put that body kit on it. That would be the most appealing option for me But not for the insurance company

Personally I wouldn't want to go up to a 3ltr Turbo. I like the response you get from these cars as they are. I would rather Fiat concentrate on the next edition Stilos' and make sure they have a rival for the Golf GTi performance wise without having to go even bigger with the engines.

Has Brio gat a web page 'cause i can't find it. If not how can i get a catalogue (i live in spain though i'll be in england for 2 weeks durin chistmas )

I dunno about in Spain but i got mine from my local FIAT dealer when i bought my sideskirts

I have never been able to find the Brio catalogue online..Which is another thing Fiat need to sort out. Their online Support and products is absolutely pathetic.
If they want to keep up with the competition they need to pull their fingers out.

Cheers mate

The ebay user flogging them is Artprov44 (IIRC), contacting him may be worthwhile as he is a Fiat dealer, and seems to always come up with a good price.

How do you find this user on ebay. i have never used e-bay so i'm not too familiar with it's use. Can somebody give me some poiters on how to find stuff for my stilo and find this artprov44??

I've just looked through alll the stuff under fiat stilo on ebay and din't find one body kit. Guess i'm not doin it right. How can i find this stuff. Also, i'd like to know if it's safe to buy stuff on e-bay, how does it work???

I think this is what you were looking for?! The guy selling it is 'artprov'.. his fine to buy from ive brought some stuff off him before for the stilo! Basically just look at people ratings to find out if they are any good?

You can order the Brio catalogue through the Fiat UK website, but it probably won't turn up, I've been waiting for 3 months for mine. I did get a phone call once asking me, if I had received it, to which I said no, they took my address again, but still nothing. Really fills me with confidence in Fiat.

Do you think this is a once in a liftime bumper or will they just keep bringing more and more out??? The price is really low right now, how far dou you all think it'll climb??
If i get one, will my fiat dealer here in spain pait it and mount it on the car for me??
Thanks for the link, that's exactly what i was looking for.

theres already quite a few different front bumpers out for the stilo, but this one is the only official fiat one but it all depends on your taste. I doubt it will be the only offical fiat one ever though

I should think your Fiat dealer in Spain will paint and fit it for you but at a price
