Need new bumper, so whats your thoughts on bodykits like these?

So been looking through the forum, with some great posts by a lot of people facing similar problem as me, in that its 4000 dollars roughyl for a new 2004 bumper, so thinking a full bodykit is better use of the spend.

I am liking these atm:

https://www.bodykits.com/i-30537388-bentley-continental-af-2-aero-function-full-body-kit-113192.html]Supersport Style

https://www.bodykits.com/i-30788423-bentley-continental-af-1-aero-function-gfk-full-body-kit-109389.html]GTR-ish style

Only challenge with second one is - Is that fog lights in the lower half and then how are they hooked up?

I did see one Medusa for a SS style but apparently the bumper beam would be too wide, so would maybe need changed.

I have seen that a Speed possibly fits direct on, but I will need to get that confirmed I guess. I would be useful to know as maybe for an OEM upgrade I do that.

Thoughts?

1st Bentley is infamous around these parts
I would be very surprised if those body kite were plug and play. Chances are those pieces will have to me massaged and possibly cut by a body shop to get them to fit perfect. Then of course painted so your probably closer to double that price. You know what they say... if you want to play you got to pay!

To be honest, they leave me kind of cold. They all have lots of sharp angles, which the rest of the car doesn't.

I think they'd look better on the Gen 3 cars which have more pronounced creases. But for Gen 1 and Gen 2, I like the smooth, flowing lines of the original.

A few have said that but I am gonna go out a limb here I would normally agree but I am gonna try and be different for a change and see how it goes!!! It will probably be April to May before I do it so plenty of time to get things researched like the spot lights and how I get them wired up.... do I make the Fog or DRLs.....now that is the question? Probably fogs to wire up to my fog lights button, but overall I´d like them on when travelling through the mluntains so I can see animals at the side of the road better probably......a wild boar or deer can easily write off an entire car here in the mountains!!
