    Another USP Front Bumper Thread

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    The front USP bumper skin on my son's car and needs to be fixed. The top half of the skin which covers the metal support is toast, but the lower half which the valence attaches to is perfectly fine. Since the USP skins are unobtainable, my thought was to remove the rivets from lower portion and re-rivet to a trimmed standard bumper skin per the DIY. Has anyone done this before?

    It has been done a bunch and looks indistinguishable from an actual full usp bumper once done. Matt’s was one of my favorite B6s.

    Pulled the bumper tonight, and the valence mounting section is in perfect shape. Will post some pics when I find a good skin for the conversion.

    OK, a few pictures of how the factory connects the USP section to the modified upper. 24 rivets removed, and ready to cut/drill/rivet the donor skin.
