What do you think of this bumper? (mars performance)

Hi so i need to get my existing bumper resprayed (the clear coat is starting to peel and flake) and i thought i may as well get an M-sport bumper instead.

I found this bumper on ebay http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1M-Front-...item27dabe660d. It's a "1M style" bumper with fog lights - they have the same without fog lights but i'd prefer the fog lights version.

What do you think about the overall look? As in does it look decent or does it just look stupid?

I think it would look decent without the fog lights and the plastic honeycomb grill inserts painted matte black instead of silver

Too much silver. Black would look good.

the huge problem with 1M front bumpers though on our 1s is the ducting issues that I can hear be a total pain in the ass.
