The flow of the bumper moulding into the front wing area ahead of the wheelarch is all wrong - all too obvious its from a different car.  There must be tens of aftermarket bumpers for the mk6 he could have picked and all would be a better match to the original car lines.

Everyone to their own i suppose !

The number plate looks ok, especially if he's got the Adaptive Chassis Control.

I'd like the talent to be able to do something like that although to do that to a mk6 is criminal. Dono about anyone else, but one of the reasons I got the mk6 was that it looks classy and elegant while being fast and not boy racerish. Although the mod itselflooks ok-ish, its ruined that car imo.

It looks better than I thought it would, but that bumper just doesn't go with the car.

What a bad bad man.  :cry:

The rounded lines of the bumper dont match the slightly sharper styling of the mk6. In other words it looks cack!

Besides the good craftsman skills and taste...if I stare at the front I keep focussing my eyes since they are fooled to see ...uhh...double....with those big lights underneath the standard front lights...to that is actually a matter of bad design...no matter what taste. :sick:

But in the end it is his car and his taste and he will be driving in one of a kind that's for shure.... :cool:.

Photo's can only tell so much.......mind you it wouldn't be the first time to judge it more positive in real live... :cool:
