Do I smooth or not????

[Ant FR]

Just been having a play around using paint program ( so no digging as i do not have Photo shop, just using the Windows Paint program)

Anyhoo i took the badge off and smoothed the bumper, now thinking on doing it, what you all reckon, worth it.

How will you mount the bumper once you fill the holes?

Grill looks good mate, not to sure about the smoothed bumper, would you not miss having the fog lights??

just an idea what about having vents on each side of the bumper smooted in a bit like the the ones in the attached photo but not just stuck on

i like it, but im not sure if i like it just cos it looks different or just because it looks good. but i think that i would agree with evo about the bumper, having it smoothed out could make it look like a shitty aftermarket bumper that forgot to cut the holes out for the fogs.
i def think that you should get your self some xenon head lights though, that would make it look a lot more agressive

How much al that come to, and what did you change, just the Headlights and the bulbd ad ballasts Etc

Actually yours looks ok with it as well, quickly ripped badge off, ripped number plate reces, and one side of your fogs to see what it looks like. Looks ok that

The "S" is alright but I def dont like the fogs not being there as it makes it look like a big plain space. Needs something there to break it up.

The removal of the number plate is nice but where do you put the plate then??

on a dissimilar note wat side skirts are those ant

 

[STOCKY]

ms design i think and £350 less for the fund mate

What are the holes on the skirts? is this where they a secured to the car, so no chance the can be smoothed over.

how much is it lowered if at all? maybe just the skirts making it look lower

 

[Ant FR]

there MS design ones, i should have just said i drew them on........

 

[stoneyfordNI]

350 for two feckin side skirts , i can get half a remap 4 that , sod that idea


quality tho ANT

Im liking the no handles that I honestly just noticed. Doesnt make the side to plain either.

I agree, it looks ok corner on (as your red) but not full on (as black).

I don't know why, but without the fogs it kind of made me think of this :

It looks quite good mate, understated

I still think the centre grille should have horizontal slats though, to match the two on either side.

I'm away to play in photoshop with another idea I've just had to see if you can do something similar but also keep the fogs

I didnt realise you could take the number plate "plate" off.... ive got a cut down number plate due to my private reg... What you reckon about mounting it ala alfa on the side, and taking the plate off?

Dont think you can? there is a plate type thing behind there. Ive done the same as yourself. Dont think it would work as its needs to be straight and with the curve of the bumpers you'd have to build it up behind
