    Just wondering if the TwinZ P Spec Front Bumper is legal to drive with in aus?
    Unsure as it has no lights on it and wasn't sure if since it's made that way it didn't matter?

    Can someone explain what the go would be to ever own one here?

    OK i just had a customer in for some work here in Sydney, that had recently bought a car from the ACT with a TwinZ bumper fitted.

    He had to fit some LED strip type lights to satisy frequirments for parker/driving lights, and that was it. This was for a blue slip inspection as it was the first time that the vehicle had been registered in NSW. Pics in THIS ALBUM if you want to have a look.

    There is at least one member in QLD with a TwinZ bumper fitted.

    I'd suggest you approach your state road authority.

    Thanks for that. Just curious for future plans but this is a good insight!

    I think you're generally supposed to have forward facing indicators too, easily fixed with whatever custom or eBay spec spec fittings or light strips suit your style.

    Those side/frontish ones might pass depending on what the specific rule is.

    So long as the car features adr approved lighting that provides Parker lights and forward facing indicators then the car is deemed legal.

    I was unlucky, but some inspectors will pass anything. (eg HID?)
    Check the ADR and state requirements, because you can still be pinged later by someone else.
    As mentioned above LED strip lighting will be useful.
    Those bumpers look great, worth the effort to sort it out IMO.
