Nahh, dont do it. That bumper is a sublte kind and the arches are for mad kits.

Stick to the subtle stuff

if u imagine it, the arches are for quite OTT kit, but once lowered that bumper makes the car look wide by its self so wide arches will make it look that musch wider

Didn't think you're be able to have the wide arches without the proper front bumper unless you get skins made up...

I was thinking its as tho the front needs a splitter of somekind. Something to lower it a bit as it is rather high at the mo!

FK bumper isn't the same as the Dietrich one - similar styling but far better quality.

yeah i have the Dietrich rs front and was thinking of getting some sort of dtm style splitter for the sides(as there lower than the centre section)

Ive seen a corsa at crail, which had this done (rs front with dtm style splitter moulded in) looked very good, any 1 off here got a pic of it?
