You mean the stylus bumper? The pictures weren't that good. Obviously good fit is important.

Yesh, I mean the Stylus bumper. It looks nothing like a Cyborg bumper.

I just meant the basic profile, and the large lower grille for the front mount. I just dont like how the original bumper slopes inward so much in front at the bottom. To me it seems so 1968. Just personal taste really.
I like to see people try different things, as long as the pieces all line up without crazy gaps, more power to them.

Edit: Ps. It should also be able to take an unexpected steep driveway without breaking off. That's most important, but probably about equal with fit and finish.

I still think the OEM Euro/JDM/Aus/NZ front bumper looks the best. But its hard to beat him for originality. There are a few other styles that I liked one was the civic skyline r34 clone bumper. I also thought the LS Scooby one was nice. I kinda prefer the large driving lights of the RS Scooby style too. I think that Erebuni makes a RS scooby clone bumper that fits or cars IIRC. I kinda thought the Eclipse front was a little to round and didn't flow well with the rest of the square body parts of the colt hatch.

That's my favorite too. But unless one falls in my lap for some great price (extremely unlikely), I'll just stick with my DSM bumper.

It isn't perfect, but it's solid, and better than what I had.

Here's my old bumper snowboarding at Jay Peak:
