surely it doesn\'t attack the air flow as much has having the lights fully up?


bah not a fan of it in stock form, but the BN front bumper looks pretty epic

You got a point there - but the downside is you\'d no longer be able to see the sides of the road at night - don\'t know about you, but I quite like to see where I\'m going ! :Giggle:driving

Prof is right, that design would seriously affect the beam from the lights and may even be an MOT failure if the pattern is not right.
