No, do you prefer it?!

It was extended down that far, he still has original sized moulds as well I'm sure.
I think it looks a bit chinless as standard with the rest of the kit being so big.
Anything could be made to fit but you need to mod a standard bumper, then take a mould, then make a fibre/carbon bumper, otherwise it will mis-shape when you fit it to the arches.

Its a 1600 16v FWD Kit car, very quick in the hands of its previous owner, but I dont know who owns the car now. This car was running as course car on an event in 2004 and was 8 seconds slower than an Ex. Juha Kankkunen Impreza WRC...
The Pre 97 style is the proper MSA homologated "Corsa Kit Car" kit, but its missing the flick spoiler at the back.
Im not sure if the BAT kit is homologated, but I presume it would be for them to compete. Im sure Beardy would be able to check.

Any reason why they've designed it to look like a pre 97 with a Steinmetz splitter? IMO looks gash and doesn't really do much for airflow etc

Because it has to look as close to the standard production car as possible.
