Has anyone had this bumper, got ne other pics or know of the quality of this bumper?

I take it it's made by FK the one you've got?

Is that the same FK as the suspension make etc?

had one on my first corsa.
was dietrich, but same design. people claim the fk one is better quality, but who knows.
had mine modded a bit once i'd got bored of it.

love the bumper, but wish it wasn't so curved on the bottom corners

Yup, the Dietrich bumpers from R&A were a bit thin compared to the FK ones we had through.

i bought a couple of things off them and neither of them was good quality, the boss is a wanker and will only speak to you if hes taking money off you, if you have a problem he wont come to the phone or ring you back. i'd strongly advise against buying off them but its up to you

well i bought some 'steinmetz' sideskirts off them, when i got them they were just cheap shitty fibreglass copies so it wouldnt surprise me if the bumper will be a shitty copy too. hey get it if you want, but from past experiances for me i'd never buy anything off them again

Surely thats false advertising if your supposed to get the real thing, and you get a shit copy of it??!

yeah it is, we had a go with trading standards and all that but it got us no-where. on the site it used to say Stienmetz sideskirts, but since we had a go at trying to get our money back hes changed it to steinmetz style.

someone will know where else to get it from
