   Hi have a smoothed boot on the way and thought id go the extra mile and mount a 106 rear recess into the rear bumper however after the sax is lowered 50mmall around and the 1.1 bumper on its still to bloody short and want to put more length on the bottom to make it look lower. What should you sujjest i do? i though get a rear splitter perfect shape and flush mount it to make it look longer/ Below is a pic of what im achiving, mine looks like the one on the left but lowered lol and want it to look like the one on the right (taking in mind it looks longer at the bottom)
   
   Thanks

   Think it's a good idea, the Saxo on the right looks nice, would look better with standard rear lights though in my opinion. Good luck!

   oh yeah dont worry guys this is just an example one, mine has standard lights and is lowered 50mm al aroung i was mainely asking how i can make the rear bumper of a 1.1 to look like the one on the left without getting a vtr bumper as the edges dont go on flush. unless you could rework it to make it look as part of a flatarch?
   
   Thanks

   just an idea.... what about getting a vtr bumper, cutting both bumpers along the groove, then fibreg;add the two together along that? fill the grove in, and shabang, longer, smoothed rear bumper?

    groove coes all around the bumper just above the license plate? would look better without it anyway imo
