something about taking the curvy sleek rd1 styling and putting a broad front end on it that doesnt sit well with me. sad.gif

You could mount some huge fog lights like the WRX has in the openngs beside the main grill.

That's highly unlikely mate.

Sorry bro, it's the only one I saved onto my hard-drive but I'll see if I can find one online for you.

It's kinda the same way I feel about the Zefiro & Cuda kits for the RD1 mate. In all honesty I'd rather have one of Chris' Studie front bars but I just don't have a grand to put into a bumper at the moment. The only other thing locally available is the Newstyle/Club GTR front... I'd rather stay stock than go for that thing.

Well I received the bumper today & it looks very nice. The quality is very very good & it's a genuine Carcept bumper with serial number & everything.

I'll upload pics of the actual bumper but for some reason I'm having difficulty transferring the pics from my phone to my laptop.

For now though, here are some better pics of what the thing will look like. My car is a dark blue colour but it gives you an idea...





I can't wait till I get this sucker painted & fitted smile.gif


EDIT*: Here we go...

I too love the bumper but i do understand te argument that it does away with the curvyness of the Tibby and turns it into what looks like an Eclipse front to me
