Re: Another bumper...









Ready to fit... I'll be doing that in the morning and may update with pics.

Notice the strip of black plastic in the "vent" rather than mesh...

Re: Another bumper...

Looks good. I think you should get rid of the colour coded badges though.

You know what I mean, the panel which you can usually see through the mesh.

Re: Another bumper...







Fitted. I'm really happy with the results. What does everyone else think?

and yes, that is a halfords exhaust trim (I had it in the shed). And I fell over taking the 3rd pic...

Re: Another bumper...

what can i say. it looks unbelieveably good, the whole car has been finished off now in terms of looks, IMO

i dont care for the badges especially; they arent offensive, but i think it would look better if they were black&chrome, or better still, not at all, but thats a very minor nitpick i have

are you keeping that exhaust trim?

oh no... lol

It will be replaced as soon as the MOT is sorted (failed on front shocks), with my Janspeed cat-back.

or... I could get a massive exhaust trim instead...
