It just looked different.
Must be the angle of the shot, the J & the M look farther apart and in the lower one and you can see a fixing head.

black with small bumpers never looks right i dont think. just looks too skinny at the front

i much prefer the 2nd pic, big bumper makes it look that bit wider and meaner. a single lamp grill might just finish it off!! (im not biased!!)

Definatly gotta be small bumpers. Everyone is running big bumpers now. Depending on the car as to what color indicators. I have crystal clears on mine and they look great. now i just need to lower it about 25mm and it will look really good.

25mm? you'll hardly notice the difference! ?;) got to be at least 40 if not more!

small bumpers are definatley in fashion right now but i think they only work if you go for the retro overall look. ie modern wheels and small bumpers would look wack. and if your going to go small you gotta get that thing looking clean and simple as it fits the overall style. look in magazines at the people running small bumpers and see the other mods they've done to keep their cars looking fresh!
