not very representative to have one with a plate and one without?

You can see the plate recess on both. I’m not sure having a plate on them will have a meaningful effect on the overall outcome?

I agree however that the aftermarket rear is a marked improvement on the standard version. Standard front with that revised rear would be my choice.

Doesn’t look like a big expanse of flat with a plate in it.

Also, which is right - grills or flat section on the recesses?

It fixes the main problem to my eye which is the swooping line passing under the plate on the original. It’s fussy and leaves too much of an expanse of plastic for the exhausts to be housed in as a result. It all looks a bit cheap.

The issue I’d have is the revenent one is a little flat. I like the way the black sections on the OEM one protrude further out when viewed from the side.

I’d take an OEM one with the new style front please.

I quite like the way the OEM one swoops as it works with the lines for the rear glass
