If I take a 550 sport and then add the Umnitza Mtec bumper (really M-5 with fogs) and don't yet change the side skirts or rear bumper will the lines of the car when viewed from the side still match? that is....will the bottom of the bumper be level with the bottom of the side skirt and the rear bumper? I want to make sure if I do the change in phases or simply only change the front bumper it will not throw off the car when viewed from the side. Have any others on the forum only changed the front bumper and does it "work" with the car when viewed from the side?
Thanks,
Eric

The front of the M5 and the front of the Mtech do not line up to the side skirts. They are slightly higher. I know what you mean by not matching. I hate that so that's why I got a splitter to make the front not as high.
