you can sell the bumper to me while you make up your mind lol just kidding

i think it looks fine either way, with or without canards - however it looks badass with canards, especially carbon fiber ones to match that lip. You could just wait to put it on once you get the CF canards, or just go without.

Its up to you man, your car. If it were my bumper I would impatiently wait for the CF canards tocome out.

Yeah, I had to do quite a lot of adjustments to make it look like that. But the drivers side light adjustment i'll do later when its painted. I'm so tired, lol.

They will come with it, I just ordered this bumper. I asked them not to send the intake though, which saved me a couple of bucks, as I'm running the K&N Typhoon and didn't need it.

Hey... could somebody with this bumper off thier car flip it around and take (and post) a picture. I'd like to see how this air vent is. I'm considering getting this bumper for my 07, since it's got dual intakes this is my main concern. Thanks!

Here are some more pics I took after a wax. The lip actually hit something really hard last night as I was driving, and it ruined a part of the lip.

nice wax job with the Zymol I love that stuff.

Also, make sure you chronicle all your progress from bone stock to your eventual RS Concept look. It'll make for an awesome write-up!
