I think it might be lighting a bit, depending on the photo they are still visible (at least to me). What made me most skeptical was the transition at the bottom portion.

Regardless, if it is done, good on whoever did it as they did a very good job. If everyone that puts on the kit also has done like this it would look fantastic and is a great option to run wider front wheels/tires. If you bolt it on like on the green car, it'll look like shit lol.

yeah, youd have to look at the part near the corner of the headlight where it meets the fender, you can see its been removed a bit from the molding.

but non the less, id just run washer to space out my fenders :P

If you told me both cars are using the same fenders, but the orange car is using a different bumper I'd believe that. Or they modified the OEM to fit?
I'm guessing you're not familiar with epoxy resins bumper repairs? That's the same process how they fix cracked bumpers. You can build the resin up, sand it smooth and no lines would show. Similar how you patch dry walls.

The motorsport24 route if you like OEM+ look. But probably makes sense if you're doing Euro bumper the same time as you will need to paint the bumper, might as well start fresh.

Resurrecting this post

The MS24 link doesnt seem to work anymore, which seemed like an ok option. Sorry for the delay, been focusing on my son's racing career. Any new elegant options for 315 square setup you guys have seen.

I saw this one pop up, https://**************/products/e92-...Whz3Gzd-WBZ_xQ

No word on fitting 315s though. Although ^these with some trimming might be the ticket.

I Think that’s a link to something being offer by a banned account (doesn’t mean it or he isn’t to be dealt with though).
