NFS front and back valance/bumper spoiler (whatever its called)

Does anyone have any photos of a sporting with the nfsd rear bumper sport spoiler on (as it is called on the fiat website). Just wondering what it looks like as you cant really tell from fiats photo on their website as it is so zoomed in. Im going for the front valance when the car arrives so just wondering whether it would be best to match up and get the rear one too.

Also once the front valance is on is it possible to change the grille like Rich C has or should this be done before the valance is put on?

yeah i like the novitec one too its just with the nfspeed one being provided by fiat it wont put insurance up as much as its an optional extra instead of being a non standard modification.

Dont take that as gospel, speak to your insurance first.

it wont affect your insurance as some special editions now come with it on so no excess on insurance just say it had it on when new if you are ever in a bump like i did

Re: NFS front and back valance/bumper spoiler (whatever its called)

would you go for the back bumper spoiler too so that it matches in or do you think the back is fine as it is?

I suppose it depends on what other mods you have got as to whether they would believe you. If you have got a nice exhaust and alloys etc they might not buy it.

I think you can easily get away with just the front but im looking at doing the back as well, mainly because its the only part of my car where i havent really done anything other than the badges.

Re: NFS front and back valance/bumper spoiler (whatever its called)

I'm still looking at getting the front NFS valance but when someone metioned it costing £300 with spraying and fitting i was abit put off. £150 on the fiat website is ok but £150 fitting is abit pricey

Re: NFS front and back valance/bumper spoiler (whatever its called)

yea i thought that too, thats why i cant really afford front and back. On one website i found, they seem to do it in every colour but exotica red and caribbean orange which i thought was typical, so will have to get it sprayed

the thing is it needs to be bonded to the front bumper and held there with clamps and left to cure there is no screws or clips involved in the fitting of the nfspd valance so it relies totally on how well its stuck on.but the nfspd does look so much better than a bog standard gp front bumper.its 50mm lower too so it looks sportier imo
