Default PIC REQUEST: All tC's with M3 bumpers

Recently, a rock decided to shatter one of my fogs.

And as we all know, you can't just replace the simple little plastic lens,
but you must replace the whole damn thing that would cost around like $200.

So I came to the realization that just for maybe, $100-200 and some, I can get
a brand new bumper. My eyes are set on the Viniati M3 bumper right now.
It's clean and simple. I think it would look great with the Umnitza DDE's
I plan to purchase in the future also.

I've only seen one picture of a tC with an M3 bumper,
which would be the one off of the http://www.viniati.com website.



Does anyone have any other pictures?



I'd like to see more angles and different shots so I
could make my final decision.




One more thing, I remember a while back some guy made some other M3 bumpers.
Was it Turvy? Something like that. Is this the exact same bumper?

here's mine. and yes it's the exact same bumper. I ordered it from Viniati, and even went and picked up at Turyz Concept (which is sorta local to me)

Damn! That makes me want to get the M3 front. Best looking bumper ive seen yet. Seems like you see EVERYTHING behind it though so maybe some think mesh?
EDIT: How stupid of me. Ill just put some fogs in and then a big ol' FMIC.

i do have mesh there.. but it's not "bold" enough of a mesh to hide the stuff behind.. and plus i painted the mesh black which doesn't help. I went and got some better mesh material and i'm gonna paint it a dark grey and reinstall as soon as i have some time.

Just use black spray paint to cover up the silver of all the crap behind the mesh, I had the same prob with my current grill and then painted all that stuff black, now you don't see it if you're not looking for it, i still want to move the horns somewhere a little less obvious though they kinda ruin it

Looks like my thread is giving Viniati some public advertising

Anyways, I have a question.
Does this bumper line up nicely with the OEM Ground Effects kit?

i don't know if it does or not, but if you look at it, notice that it's about half an inch lower then the stock no sideskirts. I'm assuming with the oem sideskirts, it'll look PERFECT.

I have some spare stock fog lights laying around because I switched them with some aftermarket fog lights. All you have to do is cut off the old fog and splice a new one on. PM if you're interested.

umm all you have to do is take the bulb out change out the lense portion and reinsert the bulb, no splicing needed
