CSR Front Bumper

Hi Guys sorry for the delay, Ive had the CSR bumper for a couple of months just never had time to get it installed, then last week I had a chance to send the car to my body shop to get it installed and I just got the car back. Sorry the pics are not the best but the car is a little dirty and I was losing daylight. I'll take more pics tomorrow after I detail it.

It looks a bit awkward in those pics...I think it's the lines that come off of the center lower grill and continue up the bumper. Kinda makes it look like a monkey or confused zombie...

Props for being different though! Wheels look great too. Thanks for the pics.

This is the best looking aftermarket bumper that enhances the lines of the 1 series without looking like a modded japanese car

Can you measure if you have time how much lower the bumper is vs the side skirts? Unless CSR/ASR has aftermarket ones coming up because the bumper looks lower.

Do you know if the bumper is lower than the stock/mtech sideskirts and if it`s easy to uninstall the foglights and its surroundings, so no one is able to see that they actually belong there?
And what about the air ducts?Is it possible to fit the oems?

I'll take some measurements on the bumper so you can see how low it its from the ground, it appears to be about as low as the stock bumper. My body shop did have to do some fabrication in order to get the bumper to fit correctly..

Also although I love the bumper, I may have to put the stock one back on. Since I have a custom made intercooler from ASR, they designed my intercooler using the the stock 135 bumper and it seems my CSR bumper is blocking about 20-25% of the top of the intercooler. So it seems like I may have to go back to stock.

So if anyone is interested in the bumper PM me... I have close to $1300 in the bumper including paint and fabrication to make the bumper fit correctly to our US cars...

Funny, because I think it would be a much better looking bumper if they made that center opening taller, which makes a continuous line across the face of the bumper, instead of that stepped appearance with the fat bar in the middle.
