Default ST170 Front Chin

I was thinking about changing the front bumper of my ST170, I want it to look more like an RS, i.e. more chin, lower lip.

Does anyone have any ideas ? or will it look wrong on a narrow tack car ?

Thanks

Straight swap will be a lot of work




Not seen an aftermarket kit that looks any good IMO so I'm not much help there :P

That does look rather different.. I take it that's an oem FRS bumper?

yeah I think so it's from a build in the USA, The person in question went with a Rieger R-RX front bumper in the end, A bit more detail in the link if your interested.

As you can see below it does look good but on ST170 would look like a normal focus that puts me off personally.




The other option maybe the front skirt but not very RS like.
