Second hand OE would be best .. as a lot of aftermarket bumpers sold today are really , crap in terms of material type dimensions fitments etc.

 

Might even go on a trip to the scrapyard and see if there's any OE base model bumpers in good nick  , with a little bit of trimming and hole drilling , will be as gti one .

 

New OE item , i really don't know , "Farmer" might help you with new (old stock) bumper .

Has anyone had any luck trying to source something suitable?

 

After a lengthy chat to a nice chat on Carpanels4U, there doesn't seem to be many options that are a straight forward simple fit. And even a with a lot of work, finding something suitable may not be that simple.

 

An i correct in thinking any 205 bumper can be made to fit a GTi?

Yes, a wee trim and a couple of holes drilled and it’s a GTI bumper ;)
