Looks good..

Just a few things;
- Wrong Section (You need the Styling section(s))
- Is that a Magnex Exhaust?
- Why don't you cut a small recess in the bumper so it can sit properly?

With those profile tyres you need to be A LOT lower. ;)

Looks good though, close ups?

Lol sorry I did sound like a right twat in my previous post.. Best thing to do mate is to buy a VT rear bumper, easy to find, already has the bit cut out, I have the same exhaust, if you look in my progress thread it shows how Magnex's should sit :y:
