Per the title- I'm looking for a set front and rear bumper assemblies for Euro/ Australian Series 2 XJ6. Please send PM if you have any available for sale.

 

Hello,

I think i may have some series 2 bumpers, unfortunateley im in the uk so shipping could be expensive, i think there may also be more involved than just swapping from us federal spec to euro bumpers, ive got a feeling you will need euro bonnet hinges/bumper mounts aswell.

regards
Paul

 

Paul-

I've been trying to buy these from the UK... been a couple of ebay ads for cars being broken. Shipping will be around 100 GBP. If you can find those bumpers and shoot some pics, I'll make you an offer.
Are they in good shape? Brand new stainless ones are $1300 USD.

I'm also looking for the 7" outer headlamp assemblies and lower front grille to complete the Euro look. I've heard about the bonnet hinges being different- do you know what the difference is?

Thanks,

Brian

 

I will check on my bumpers, im sure i have a series 2 front with overiders, lower front grille, and i know i have a good rear centre section, ive got the outer sections but they may need rechroming, series 2 euro/uk spec bumpers are the same as later (post 70 i think ie no numplate light in bumper) US series 1 bumpers so it may be easier/cheaper for you to source the rear bumper in the US. The bonnet hinges/bumper mounts slide into the chassis rails and secured with bolts, easy eniugh to swap but they are quite heavy so may be expensive to post/ship. You may be able to adapt your own bonnet hinges, il try and look into exactly whats different for you. Regarding the 72 headlight the headlight and bowl is the same as fitted to many english cars even US spec ones IE mg's triumph etc, therefore you could source that in US then just buy the outer chrome rim from uk. Im happy to help with what ever i can for you. i will check my bumoer this week and get back to you.

 

I found this post on the internet, it gives an idea of whats needed, i think i have a pair of front turn/indicator lamps.

"Consider series 2 euro instead for that classic clean look. Good quality reproduction bumpers are availble . You would still need new hood hinges, euro front vailance, euro lower grill and turning signals. You can find most everything on ebays UK site. For the rear you will have to cut off the bumper shocks and weld on a plate and stud to mount the bumper"

 

Pjb- Please send pics of your bumpers and other Euro bits that I listed when you get a chance to: brianjens@yahoo.com

Thanks
