Looks great, very clean lines and the fit is nice also.
Good choice.

Wow, thats beautiful!!! You need to pick up some fat wheels now! I like the grill you are using. It makes that bumper work w/o an intercooler.

I agree with the grill doesnt look so hot. Its not the pattern its the fact that your car is black and that grill is bright silver. Maybe it would look better if it was painted a gunmetal or black color, that way it wouldnt stick out so much.

i thought about painting the grill black at first too but didn't want to spend any more money on it having it powdercoated. i have also had a black car with a black grill before and i really didn't care for that look.

i do appreciate the feedback though....i have some people that like the grill and some that don't....but everyone that has seen it in person likes it.

however, a gunmetal might not look so bad if i were to go with gunmetal or diamond black rims and then i would probably have the grill painted to match.

i am very happy with the overall quality, fitment, and style of the bumper...and yes i do scrape from time to time on a steep parking entrances...but no probs with speed bumps

What material is the bumper made out of? Is it fiberglass?

qirex,

well i don't have a vented hood if your referring to z boy's ride and i think his hood looks great on his sb

now that aw bumper/grill is far from rice grasshopper.....this bumper needs a grill to protect the exposed radiator and oil cooler because of the larger openings....any suggestions you might have would be great too to go along with that .02

i'm happy with it so i guess i'm a little biased....rw...out

Id imagine it looks even better in person.
