Default Still Rockin' Y'all!

Hi everyone, I bought the last 2003 black-on-black S2K from my local dealer in August and thought, well, I'll just drive this baby when the sun's out and keep my 1993 Rover 827 SC for rainy days and long hauls. Wrong!!! Although it's still really tricky to drive the "S"--as we call them in Germany--on wet roads, the experience still beats the pants off anything else! I'm considering swapping the rear bumper for an '04 and getting a stickier footwork. Any ideas about prices? IMO the '03 front is way badder than the '04, but the '04 rear is killer. Can't say I would want to modify anything else except for the exhaust....This is my first post!!! All comments welcome!!!

I'm not sure what your pricing will be and I only know of stateside places to get them from. Aren't your rear plates larger than they are here and you have a different bumper to accomodate them?

Yeah, you're right, but I don't think the price difference will be too big. The cars cost the same (bought mine for 32Ks, down from 35.5Ks). Can you give me an indication?

however since you are in Germany, you may want to contact a dealership around your local area since shipping may be a bit more then you wanted to pay.

Yes, let me know what the dealer is charging you. I'm kind of local and was interested in the same. Plus I don't want to mail some big arse box through USPS.
