I followed your guide Pabs, u made it a doddle to fit.
Although had to chop it down a little bit on each end to make it fit properly.

Think it's because the overall shape of the My03 bumper is made diferently to the 180 spec one.

If i'm wrong correct me.... or maybe I just fitted it incorrectly.....arghh I dont know it was getting dark!! :confused:

Simsy, I think you may be right tbh, but i fitted mine without any additional trimming. Just had to reposition it lots of times with selotape holding it in place until i was happy with it.
Doesnt it look good ;)

Oh Deffo agree Pabs. I saw it on your guide page and had to give it a try.
Surprising how a little bit of plastic can make the appearance of the MY03 & 180 spec Cupras look so much more aggressive.

It's a Top mod! :D
