Cheap Volkswagen Sharan Bumper

The second-generation Sharan runs from 2010 onwards, and it received a facelift in 2015 that brought revised front and rear bumpers along with updated lights and grille. If you're sourcing a bumper, you'll need to match your car to either the pre-facelift (2010–2015) or post-facelift (2015 onwards) period to have any chance of a correct fit. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.

These two cars sit on either side of the 2015 facelift, which means the bumper designs are different generations of the same model. The 2013 car is pre-facelift and the 2017 car is post-facelift, so a straight swap is unlikely. Confirm with the breaker whether any interchange is possible for your specific registration before purchasing.

Both the 2012 and 2014 Sharan sit within the pre-facelift second-generation period (2010–2015), so these cars share the same front-end design and a bumper from either year should be from the same body shell. That said, always quote both registrations to your breaker to verify the part numbers match before committing to a purchase.

Trim level does not affect bumper fitment on the Sharan — the shell and panel are the same across SE, SE-L, and SEL grades within the same generation and facelift period. You may find cosmetic differences such as parking sensor holes, different paint finishes, or trim inserts between grades, so check the donor car's specification matches your own. Confirm the details with your breaker against your registration to make sure any such features line up correctly.

The year alone is a good starting point but you should also tell the breaker whether your car is pre- or post-facelift (the facelift occurred in 2015), and note any features on your bumper such as parking sensors, a front camera, or tow-hook provisions. The breaker will ideally cross-reference your full registration against their stock to confirm compatibility. Providing your reg is the most reliable way to avoid ordering the wrong part.

The bumper shell itself is generally the same, but a car fitted with front parking sensors or a camera will have specific cut-outs and brackets that a plain bumper will not have. Always describe your exact setup to the breaker — including how many sensors you have and whether a camera is fitted — so they can match a donor car with the same configuration. Confirm all details against your registration before agreeing a purchase.
