you're doing the whole thing wrong.

Its not how that one is fitted, it is the shape of the bumper that makes the fitment poor. You really need to do some research, it is very obvious you are brand new. Spend some time in the build sections and in the body kit sections. There are cheap kits like the one you are looking for that fit poorly and there are quality kits that cost more and fit properly.

actualy the shape of the bumper can be altered slightly to fit properly, if you get it installed by someone who actualy knows how to do it it can look just fine

So, why do peoples stock pignose, and chuki fronts not fit well? Not saying companies make bad fitting parts but, you can most likely make any bumper fit it's just how much time you want to put into it.

the bumper fits on fine hes saying the lines and the contours of the bumper dont match the lines of the car, so where they meet its not a smooth transition its a angle.like putting a round bumper on a boxy car or a boxy bumper on a round car

and I dont care becasue I think the bumper still looks good. and you can alter it to look a little better but even if you couldent it doesnt really matter because he doesnt have to like how my car looks only I do

anyways i got the info i needed so we can close this

Hey, and I'm only speaking from personal experience. I had an origin front bumper and bmagic kit. Hit a few cones at a drift day when my rear tire blew out and I spun, and bought a bmagic front to replace because of the price difference and there were definite gap fitting differences.

As far as a piggy bumper not fitting properly, check all the brackets and mounts. I/We are not talking about factory bumpers, we are talking aftermarket pieces... Good luck with it.
