might not be great for air flow to the brakes with the vents so far round the side.... looks good cosmetically

rob oneill

Fizz, are the small vents by the side of the fogs actualy functional? Are they ducted to the brakes?
They dont look big enough to cool a cup of tea
Thanks.

on the first picture i think the front end would look better if
the lip of the front bumper was straigt in front of the radiator...

the VII (Second pic) looks about 10^100 times better than the first.

rob oneill

I think your right!
Thanks.
What about the sides though, OK, or not??

rob...
im definately liking the 2nd version of this bumper but maybe you could extend the main mouth of the bumper up a bit to replace where the meshed vents were put in?

just an idea >>> the sides look fab tho!

dave

I think the sides make the standard alloys look small. And aren't there some regs on where the no. plate is positioned on a car?

..but it looks better than 99% of the aftermarket bumpers...

rob oneill

dave, I agree with you mate but I cant realy raise this part, if you look at an original bumper then it still sits this low, but the lower part is just left black. The bumper frame is also directly behind it.

Jon, As far as Ive been able to find out, as ling as the front number plate is of legal size and in a clearly visible position, there is no problem. Thanks for the idea.

Cheers, Rob.

Can you take those pug ugly Morettes off? They're putting me off my dinner and your bumper

Keep the vents on the front of the bumber but you need to style them a bit. it looks like you have just cut holes in with aout thinking about it.
