looks superb mate, but i really think it would look even better if u dont put the black strip in and maybe had of smoothed out the swage line left by the strip. Still looks pretty in my eyes. Excellent work mate

Think it would look better with the defuser painted RED.Middle of the bumper looks to thin.

Just my personal opinion..No offence intened.

Hi man, stunning motor you've got there, its an inspiration to us all. Jus wonderin wot your tips are for havin a totally de-locked car. It looks so good all smooothed, but has it ever caused you any problems? E.g bein totally locked out?! Thinking of gettin it done on the Xr3. Cheers fella

Looks so much better than i thought fella.
You must be pleased with it..

Although i did notice the side of the bumper dont sit as flush with the arch extension as the last bumper... How comes that?

gotta admit I wasn't sure about the bumper when it was being put together but now its fitted it looks absolutely spot on!!

I'm just trying to rack my brains for where I got my chrome bumper inserts from when I did my XR2, if I remember I'll give you a shout

Just need to tweak the holes in the wheel arch on the bumper to give me a bit more up movement.
