Default Hawkeye Wagon front bumper Noob question!

I have a generally noob question about the Hawkeye Wagon... are the saloon and wagon bumpers the same? Only reason I ask is because I'm looking at getting this: http://scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/pro...oducts_id=1826 for my 2006 Wagon but after asking Scoobyworld they're not 100% it's the same fitment. Advice would be appreciated! Much love guys <3

Wagon bumper are narrower, but I imagine not buy much and the skirt will fit fine.

I know the bumpers are different as the saloon wings are more flared/wide arch. But i'm not sure how different the bottom edge is, might be the same....

I would suspect the safest thing to do would be to get someone with a saloon hawk to measure the distance between the lowest rear most points of the bumper (bottom of wheel arch) to compare. At least then you'll know if they are wider?

Thanks guys. I knew the wings were narrower as the saloon are flared, but wasn’t sure about the bumper. Thing is, it’s a lot of money to take a gamble on. I reckon Scooby Doo might be on a winner though. Although Steve, your advice is a safer bet.

If anyone would be kind enough to measure the bottom points wheel arch to wheel arch on their Saloon for me, I'd love you long time. <3
