Avenger front bumper = hidden indicators. Any ideas?

Fli eye effects the strength of light that shines though, but the light remains solid. Whereas an anal MOTer could argue mesh in front of an indicator is an obstacle. All depends on the gauge of mesh as well.

I'm just suggesting it makes sense or brooz to clear it with his MOTer if he has a regular MOTer first to save y messing about.

A member had this bumper on his silver 5th gen, I can't remember how he had his lights fitted tho.

My mot guy was happy provided the indicators were nice and bright, bit of a struggle but I got there in the end - quite a lot of cable ties involved. The turn signals show through the small gaps just below the headlights.
Also successfully swapped my obd2 out for a chipped p72

quite a productive weekend by my standards.
Thanks for all the advice btw guys.

With your image code, replace "url" with "img" and you're set mate

Bumper looks like a beard
