Having seen two bumpers from UV I would say thier fibreglassing leaves alot to be done to get it ready for paint. There is often loads of air bubles and also no cosistant thickness, thin here, thick here often resulting it it not quite sitting right to due warping while going off

i had the ultimate velocity predator front on mine and just look how low it sits, thats only 40mm on 17's, it was a cunt, i hit it all the time, yeh it looked good but way too impractical, go wiv a smaller bumper mate!
Ope that helped,

it impractical - looking back wish I hadnt had it - bumper is on straight - its just cause the cars jacked up in the pic and the background etc throws the lines off
Its too low to the ground - Ive had mien repaired several tiems already and had to constantly have the bottom lip repainted
as for quality - the grill section is crap - nto straight at all - and hence why I had the grill removed and smoothed - as the work involved to make it straight would have been harder
Quality of moulding is shit- its cheap chopper gunned fibreglass which has no residual or inherent strength - but tbh most fibreglass kits are the same
I love the looks but for practicality - Id never buy it looking back
