Anyway heres a pic from the front, and the good news is that, no, it's no lower than the standard bumper, which was a big issue for me too........ http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y6/mark996/100_1339.jpg And another from the side, slightly! http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y6/mark996/100_1337.jpg

Anonymous Unregistered A	Busa - did you have to modify the PIU bumper to get it on over your FMIC mate? Any chance you know the dimensions of your FMIC without asking you to measure it? What's the Bumper made from - how easy would it be to cut away bits of the inside if needed to fit? still no news on whether it's lower than standard? I can't measure my car as it's with Barbz at the moment.... Busa - is your car standard ride height or lowered? I seem to remember that last time there was a group buy on these they were quite expensive + involved a fair bit of shipping hasstle...

Anonymous Unregistered A	I have to go over speed bumps sideways (ish) anyway because of an intercooler pipe which is below the undertray + I've got a 30mm drop on the car. I also live in london - so lots of speed bumps! I've not got a cat - just want to be sure. what are these bumpers made from BTW?
