I don't think that's a DTM bumper. Just a regular 2012 facelift bumper. As for the LED's, that might have more to do with it being a safety car.

The F1 medical bumper is not the DTM bumper.

The so-called DTM bumper was created by Revozport and it was their own design - it's different from the original (previous F1 Medial Car) and I don't see why the new should have LEDs? The previous F1 Medical car had no fog lights either.

I know what you mean - I don't get why they had to put the chrome surrounding around the LED strip - it would look so much better withour it, just like on a W212 E63

You can pop them out and paint them body colour...no biggie

I know there is a difference between the Safety Car Bumper and the DTM bumper....but the DTM bumper was inspired by the Safety Car bumper and is available for purchase if you wanted the look.....just sayin

Yeah, the new front end looks " soft" compared to the current C63 nose. I much prefer our aggresive front over the 2012. The rear bumper is better thoygh.
