Ive head of people putting the fiberglass vent in a standard front bumper, possibly worth looking at.

Id go for the one Paul has if I was you. The best one I had was a smith and deakin bumper which fitted and looked lovely. Un fortunately it got smashed to pieces and the one I have now fitted terribly. If Paul says it looks good then I'd go for that. He knows what he's on about. What ever you do DON'T buy the replica ones off of eBay.

Just had a look and X sport sell them for £315 plus £35 del

I would take £250 for this one ( minus the carbon fiber splitter )

I have kept hold of it as i have never seen a FG bumper fit as well and look as good , but i know deep down i will only ever use a gen item when i build another 3 door so will let it go if i get a decent price

Paul buddy! Get back to me with a price for the bumper and splitter delivered. I will definitely take the bumper regardless as my 3dr is black as well it will save me a few quid
