vote too people.

Burnout car.....amazing.

burnout kit....poop. sorry but getting the rest to match it and look good ist easy plus haveing curves galore either as standard or with your current kit is spoilt by the flat burnout bumper.

plus the burnout car is famous cos of those pics and the wheels. it was up for sale a few weeks ago and didnt look all that great tbh in the day just bland and a little wider than stock.

Get a 2005 model RE-Amemiya one.

It includes the sweep and extra ducts for brakes.

Sweet.

some gob****e reversed into it in a van that why most if the damage is on top of the bumper. and they got away with it because there was no witnesses:mad:   said they didnt go near the car



think im gona go for the re amemiya one. pre 99 lights. because i can get a genuine bumper for about 200£ new:wiggle   then il try get the 99 spec lights to fit it. anyone ever fit 99 spec lights to a bumper??

Hold the hacksaw,

If you compare the two bumpers they are very differnt shapes. Curve vs Angular.
I will say, its not going to look good man.

I would just run those indicators, then insert a small round bulb for park lights. if you really need it.

I Love the old style, I think it has great lines. Better than the wedgey 2005, But the 2005 has extra stuff. and already set up, surely you can trade someone.

Compare these two and look at the work amemiya did to the bumper to get the angles and lines to look ok.
