Looking forward to seeing the New bumper on, should look really nice with the indent smoothed
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

That looks awesome imo pre facelift bumper looks nicer than the facelift I think, will look awesome when it's lacured and fitted

I think gloss black, if you do it green aswell it might look like overkill
