i dunno, i was trying to decide whether i liked it or not.....   on the basis that the black lower front lip on my MV6 has seen slightly better days (i reckon it's hit a fox, or badger , not significant damage as such, but not sitting on it's mountings properly. slightly mis shaped... .)

i wondered if this might be a practical and attractive replacement...

i wouldn't say it's utterly fugly....    but i'm not convinced by it in the picture i've seen so far.

I brought one (in Black) before I brought the full Irmscher Body Kit.
It does not fit the Prodrive front bumpers, only the standard bumpers as found on all models except MV6's.

images are still up from ebay

so have a look, frankly, it looks like the top one you posted Tunnie, but definitely has a black lower lip.
