    After


    And just this one cos I love this angle, makes it look beefy and mean


    Cheers

    If you want my opinion, which i'm sure you don't..

    I think it looks good the way it is. Just needs to be lower.

    Yeah guys KIWI shoe polish is the duck's nuts of bumper blackening. I've tried a few things and been very dissappointed to see them wipe or wash off very easily, but shoe polish is like paint with an awesome little applicator...my bumpers still look like that and I've washed it....four times in between, for 5 weeks worth.

    Preeny, the car won't get any different Only wheels, exhaust, and DROP.

    Once you go black, you never go back mate and you can't go black unless you use KIWI shoe polish!!
