would my valver look crap if...

[samcourtney86]

Hi, been thinking about getting a k-tec kombat rear bumper for my valver. I dont want a full bodykit but I think looking from the side the rear of the valver looks too high. Especially in comparison to the skirts and front bumper. Plus i love a low slung rear, but im worried it'll look naff with just an aftermarket rear bumper. Any opinions?? thanks, Sam

well seeing as the rear bumper is question isn't exactly a great option with the rest of a bodykit, i'd say, yes, it will look daft

I've always thought the mk1 rear bumper is a bit of a let down too...

I fitted my original front splitter onto the back.

Still looks higher than the sides/front but makes it looks loads better!

dont do it! standard body looks spot on IMO! lowered, nice wheels, sorted! i personally dont like kits at all, but thats just my taste!

Have you got a pic of the bumper ??

whats the combat one look like...Shell network if bein ghey wont let me look on k-tec.

It will look gash!!

If the back end looks too high, deck it some more! What size wheels have you got? I know a girl on 15's and its decked almost 100mil on the back. she gets no probs and the back bumper is about a fag packet off the floor...lol

Thats what I/Dean done, looks best that way IMO, looks factory!

You can just about see it in these ones fella:

Havnt really got any good pics of it, but it does look good, looks like renault put it there themselves! lol

 

[_Tom]

Does look kinda standard actually! Would look alright on mine i reckon!!

Does it fit directly?

 

[Dan_mk1]

Yep, needs a little cut out where the exhaust sits but other than it just bolts on with self tappers

 

[_Tom]

Ok cheers fella. Might invest!

That Kombat rear bumper will look ok if your car is modded outside & has skirts (like the green k tec demo valver in the pic) but if your valver is standard, it will look wrong.

Yeh, thanks for your opinions, I've only lowered it about 60ish on the back with 16"s. I got a k-tec exhaust system fitted which seems to sit super low to the ground in the centre of the car. Only a couple inchs away from the surface. Anyone else find this?? Thanks again, Sam

 

[Rip3z]

Lol if you lowered it 60mm then you can't expect much else.
