Does this fit onto the standard front bumper or is this a direct replacement?

I think the "skin" is made by rieger and the whole front bumper is a copy in fiberglass made by another company...
but the bodyshop in France sell both of them...

There is a Rieger RS front skin (Thats the plastic one that bonds onto the v-Grille bumper)
And then theres a dietrich RS full bumper, fibreglass but high quality
I think people are getting these confused.

This is my Reiger RS Bumper:
It is as said above a skin or extension that is bonded onto the existing bumper(usually the standard bumper can be trimmed for a better fit and look). It bonds onto the line just above the number plate the line where the un-painted plastic meets teh painted bottom half of the bumper.
So you have to bare in mind the fact that you have to get the un-painted plastic smoothed and painted to match in, the FK dosent need this but is about £100 more and they are quite different if you look(ones got the line which matches the arches and the other is smooth and one has a deeper middle section)!!!!

I had heard that Dietrich dont make the bumper any more, and FK had bought the moulds/rights to produce the bumper.
