In amongst the dodgy bits there are some quite neat touches there!

And I actually like the new front bumper

the lights in the mirrors are nice little added touch

think the new bumper will be better and stronger!! last one was weak n nasty.... get the black mesh with the yellow should set it off a treat

Rear bumper looks interesting, any pics of it before all the damage?

Rear looks a bit like that metallic yellow one from abroad with the tigra front end.

sorry i dont have any other pics of the of how it was

the rear bumper is a standard bumper with a splitter on which looks like home made and sorta vxr style ??? i think....
the reason why it broken theirs no strenghin in it think if u done 70mph the other side would snap off...
