MILOS,

Here is herblenny's build thread. There should be some pics of the bumper buried in here. The are some on the first page, uninstalled, but I bet you will find some in the later pics.

The feed bumper is not ostentatious in any way shape nor form. So IMO it is not tacky at all... However I just think the bumper is 'alright' not here nor there if you know what I mean. But what really seals the deal for is me is how durable a bumper is. Fiberglas? no freaking way because I know I would crack it in a week.

You mean scoot not feed ,right?

I see your point, I could easily crack the lower portion with this frp bumper.

I am still undecided ...

I agree with Feed. In pictures it looks aggressive, but in person it wasn't at all. Well that is my take on it.

Paint it, put it on. If you like it keep it. If you don't put back the 99 spec or something else

I have a Scoot Sports bumper also. to our (herblenny and I) knowledge they are only two in country. I havent installed mine yet though, still rocking 99 spec.

That said, I like how they both look.
