You going euro then? as the bumper with the fogs smoothed is definately going for the euro look....
A badboy bonnet would go rather nicely  and then some deep dish rims?

Right quick update for you. Nothing big. I am in the middle of trying to source new headlights and grille (Dont want to talk about the m's anymore)
Anyways I was mid-cleaning the car when I looked at the bumper I got on Wednesday and thought . . . . um lets have a play . . . .
Was originally just going to smooth over fogs but I decided to cut the little vertical bits out of the middle section. The decided fook it big mouth it . . . .
From this . . .
To this in 5 easy minutes . . . .
While I was messing with the car I tried some DTM mirrors on (Euro themed'ish)
Not quite sure on them. . . .
Few more bits and pieces to get before FCS but its looking a bit better!
Phewww! One post and no moaning!!

Rich, how about smoothing a set of standard mirrors? Not seen that done very often atall.
A cheap set of standard mirrors and build up the recess where the VT cap would go until its smooth? That would work nicely.
Cant wait for phase 2 with the bumper

most fefinately not the DTM do what willsy said, sounds good plus never really seen it before
id say youd get away with some filelr and some highbuild primer 
bumper looks good too some more sanding bit of fibreglass and filler should have it looking nice
