Very nice looking, I think i'd change the bumper to somthing more subtle, then fit some deep dish rims...16" due to the size of the arches and make it euro

the new reiger bumper widened would look nice IMO.
dont go for 16s they will look silly in the big arches, they need to be filled, agree they need changing, dont know what to tho!

i like the euro stylee, but with the wide arches i think it will add a british twist, no ones done it that i know of so will be different
which reiger bumper are you on about?
the r34 style one?
im widening a smoothed post 97 bumper at the min to see what it looks like

yeh it would be good to add your own style to it, but if you see those arches with even 17s on they look wrong, but if you can pull it off then go for it, wont be easy though!
a smoothed standard bumper is gonna be alot higher than the rest of the kit is it not?

i'll give it a shot
the problem with the height of the front has been a major dilemma for me, i wanted to try widening a gsi front as there slightly deeper but that would be a waste of 150 quid if it looked wrong if you know what i mean. so will try the standard front might even try to extend it a few inches. will post some pics when ive done it tho before i decide, i can still put the r&a bumper back on if it looks shit
