Technical Are front bumpers the same on 3 and 5 door models?

[a deer ran into my stilo]

I've got a 2003 5 door 1.6 active, a deer ran into my stilo yesterday :bang:and knackered the passenger wing, headlight and bumper. I can fix it myself just need the parts. There is a front bumper on ebay but its for a 3 door - it looks the same as the 5 door but does anyone know if it is.

Thanks...

Dave

Hello from Greece.

There is a minor difference on the light profile of the bumper.
A member of StiloClub.gr already fit a 3D bumber on his 5Dr...
You can check his Garage...

they are both completely different as far as i know more a less, a few guys on here have done the switch from 3 door to 5 door, and 5 door to 3 door bumpers etc

3 door bumper

5 door bumper

 

[ioannidis]

Yeah they are different. But the issue is if there is a difference to the fitting bolts etc.
I'dont believe that there are major differences on the fitting points...

I had a 3 door bumper on my 5 door Stilo - we used the same fitting bolts if I recall.

See? And you'll make your Stilo look more beautifull

Before you bid too much keep in mind it doesn't fit that well as several member have discovered

You might want to hang out for the proper 5 door one (scrap yard maybe) as I'd imagine it will look better :chin:

the lines meeting bodywork lines are different

My original thread here:

Granted, there were differences on the lines, especially around the light area.

Just had a thought, what colour is your car? I have a 5 door bumper in Atlantic Green sitting in the shed, and I want rid of it before I move house....

It should, but I am allowed to post what I want, where I want :nerner:

Actually, I was only enquiring as to the colour of his car :chin:

Colour is dark blue, can't remember the technical fiat colour and it's raining! I'll let you know if I don't win!

Thanks for the link and the original thread - excellent help (and reassurance)

Cheers again

(Just had to explain Bambi isn't really dead to my 2 year old because her mum keeps telling her I killed it!)

Dark Blue / Green = perfect match

 

[ioannidis]

Did you keep any deer horns? The would make perfect match with your two color front...
