I'd blended the rear spats into it so I couldn't remove them to fit to another bumper

They were re-sized during the upload to 800x800 so I don't know why everyone is having issues
But yes, red K-sports would look spot-on

Looks great, like the subtle touch of using the blob lock as well. I was not fussed about the bumper though when I did mine
