Default Will this fit?
Anyone know if the bumper from a 2006 gp gt will fit a 2005 gp gxp? i got hit yesterday and whoever did it left huge gashes in the rf corner of my bumper so i want to replace it. Bumper i want to use looks like the one in the pic.

No, the GXP has a model specific bumper.

The fogs won't line up, the signals will be off too. Check eBay, they have plenty of front clips. But it WILL fit if need be, but it takes away from the GXP look.

Are you sure about that? I believe that with the GXP's wider fenders, a non-GXP front clip will be too narrow and not line-up with them.
