    i've been looking at this car and wanted to know what this front bumper is. Is it supposed to be wider than the original? (notice how it overhangs the front wheels). Personally I think it's hideous and want to get it changed if I end up buying the car. My concern is that I won't be able to replace it with the stock bumper since it looks like the fenders may have been rolled to accomodate the wider bumper. In any event, any info or thoughts would be appreciated.

    it is probably lower also.
    IMO, I don't like it either on a street car.

    It's the gt kit. It looks ok but absolute dog **** when you don't have the side skirts to go with the rest of the kit.

    Try google Esta International. Speak to John. He's a good bloke. Does not speak much English but enough to close a deal. I've ordered a full set Scuderia kit from him in cf and it's absolutely beautiful. Getting it painted as we speak.

    Horrific IMO but the fenders don't look to have been altered to me.

    It is from a Fabolous Body Kit.
    I think vividracing sells it.

    I find it nasty in the extreme for a road-going version but if I were bouncing it off other F-Cars on track I can see it's merits!

    Looks like a standard bumper could be put back on but be warned - you way well receive assurances in that regard but find, when the time comes to do it, that there are other problems. Perhaps original mounts replaced or adjusted out to make way for new ones etc.

    Also the alignment at present looks pretty poor. That might be because the bumper was manufactured to a low specification or perhaps because the upper part is not shaped as it ought to be!
