One piece Politechnic Front Bumper

Having had a little mishap with the Murena sometime ago in a "Pine Safety Forest" I have stopped sulking and started the repairs.
Politechnic do a one piece front bumper, so I thought I would try one of these out. They make them to order, so they are still fresh and need curing when you receive them. My bodyshop are going to bake it for me in their car oven before they paint. They come complete with the fog light and indicator housings bonded in.
However there are no holes anywhere so a bit of time is needed to fit it up, mark, drill, cut or file out the required holes.
So far it all seems spot on and even seems lighter than the original. I will weigh it when I receive the finished article.
The car is joining the list of panels currently at the bodyshop on Monday.

P.S. I did not use the U.K. "Agent" as Politechnic offered, but bought the bumper direct from them, which they are quite happy to do.

It does look great. ;D

But what has happened to the forum? The photos are so huge that the frame width makes the text microscopic.
Do you know the reason, Anders?

It was such a nice day I thought I would have a quick drive around the neighbourhood. Very refreshing!  ;D
