That'd be too small I think.....I still can't put my finger on it - it feels like it ought to be really obvious :(

cheers

Well...the pics are a bit small to tell, but the overhang on the stock bumper is pretty mammoth - and that looks a LOT bigger - like 3" out from the indicator. It's obviously been smoothed to fit, but its fundamentally just not the same shape as the front of the car!
