As far as I'm aware you can't fit a US rubstrip to a euro bumper. To achieve the look you have to get a spare rub strip and cut a piece out to go in the middle of your standard one. Plastic weld it on, bit of filler, sand, prep and paint.

I've thought about doing it but a mate has already done it and our cars are starting to look too similar lol!!
