i have a dark blue (petrol blue) fiesta and am going to be fitting a turbo front bumper and my turbo rear bumper!!!

I have wondered quite a few times about it

Which bumper insert shall i have?

White or Chrome!!

White is unusual and stands out very well as its a dark car but i am unsure about chrome?

Pics would be appreciated :smile:

Personally i think a white ones will lok w@nk mate go for chrome. But a big tip of the day for ya DONT get em from fords and try and make em fit cos they dont do one long enough for the front bumper! Trust me i know and im £30 down from that experience:lol: Go to europa cars in fauld and they can get reels of the stuff for aroud a tenner!(wish id gone there first!):lol:

Could always get rid of the strip and get the recess filled and smoothed, considering this but just depends on how strong the filler will be if i tap something with the front end!!! Just another idea!! :wink:
