I'm with billydude on this one, big bumpers are V.popular at the mo. I say stick with the small ones but either change your indicators for smoked ones to blend into the bumper a bit or get rid of the red grill and bumper trim, maybe chrome it or something. Both orange and red together is too much colour. Personally I like the red detailing more than I like? the orange indicators so I'd get rid of them.
What better time than now, what better place than here?

Cos it's not his number plate - a spot of photoshop work perhaps?!

Can't imagine you'd have a plate of that value on an old golf!
