After encounters with some speedbumps :Grrr the lower lip of my bumper got so ugly it wasn\'t worth repairing. I decided that it was time for a change. There were some other noses I liked (RE-A, Feed, C-West, etc.,) But I would have probably kept the same problem with speedbumps. I even avoid some neighbourhoods here because of them. So ridiculously high and so steep that even regular cars touch them.
The choice to go for a \'99 spec nose was the best option for me. A big thanks to Miguel for supplying me with this.:Thumbs-up  Delivery was quick (took about 4 days to get to my door! :Thumbsup ) and everything was safely packaged. I must hand it to you mate, it took a bit to unwrap the package. Good job!
Taking the old bumper off turned out to be easier than I thought. It was mounting the new one what caused some swearing here and there.:Giggle
Anyways, on to the pics.:D Some are of the old Abflug bumper. What do you guys think?
Cheers,
Juri

Very nice 99 spec :)  Abflug actually looks quite nice when looking at it from a distance... but yeah 99 spec one rocks my socks ;D

Now time for some carbon fibre trims? :D

Cheers for the comments, guys. I think the lower lip matches the sideskirts nicely now.

The Abflug is available, if you\'re able to repair it. There\'s a pretty wide gap on the lower lip. I\'ll take some pics and show you around weekend. Maybe we can arrange something if you still want it.

Joeh, you\'re joking right? Even more CF besides the sideskirts, bonnet and spoiler?:Tongue1 I have been thinking about some rear spats in CF, but we\'ll see.

I still need a switch for the foglamps. They\'re connected but no switch.:chat

:Grrr Now I have to put the Abflug back on??:spank  Lol, it\'s all good, just joking:chat . I totally agree on the agressiveness. It does look mean. I have been thinking of replacing the old one with another Abflug, but I chose this because of the flexibility and fresh, updated look. I don\'t fancy having to repair possible cracks in the future.

Cheers for the comments:Thumbsup!
