It was'nt as easy as i thought but i got there in the end. What i recommend you do paul is trial fit the bumper first before painting. The sides dont line up with the arch 100% but neither did my original bumper. You will prob need to make the slits in the sides bigger where they attach to the wings plus you'll need to make some brackets/spacers for the bottom as the abarth bumper is roughly 1 and half inch deeper. Your original inner wheel arch plastics will need attention too for the same reason the bumper being deeper. Hope this helps chap if not just say what you want more detail of.

do you still have your standard bumper? does it need a new home?

Sorry chap, i cut it up in an attempt to mod the rear bumper.
