Title: Fulvia 1600 HF de- bumper Post by: gtx60 on 08 February, 2022, 08:52:04 PM Hello Lancia owners,
I am privileged to take ownership of a RH drive Fulvia 1600 HF. I would like to de-bumper it in the near future. Would anyone know if the front bumper indicator lamps would fit into the body spaces without modification to those spaces. Or would I need to cut into the bodywork, or indeed would I need to buy a slightly different gaskets for indicator to body fit. Looking forward to any responses. Thanks Title: Re: Fulvia 1600 HF de- bumper Post by: davidwheeler on 11 February, 2022, 12:19:04 PM Why???

Probably worth having a look on YouTube for it to see what was involved. I remember there being a bit of modification needed.
