Andy, I have a couple of questions about the Amuse bumper ... Can you still get to the front tow hook? and does the stock undertray bolt onto it or do you have to live without it now? I think the new Amuse lip for that bumper also serves as an undertray?

The tow hook is accessible but you will have to remove the grill to get to it or cut a portion out of it. Everything bolts to the bumper, undertray and fender liners in its stock location. Id never put a body kit on that didnt retain all the factory parts and location, thats part of buying a hgh quality aero kit. Im not quite sure how the new lip works but I think for the most part it functions as a diffuser to create downforce since it is on the AMUSE CSL. It may serve as an undertray too but Ive never seen one yet.

Its actually not white, its a flat grey. At night, the grey almost looks blue at certain angles and lighting. I went with the two tone because I wanted those parts to be accented, having the whole bumper painted just black, you cant appreciate the lines of the bumper, plus its different. You can search for pics of Wendys car, she has the same front on a Super Black and has the whole bumper painted black and in my opinion, my bumper looks better.

Your car makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, i'm always excited to see what you and Rick Dogg are doing to your cars.
I'm so glad that i don't live around you guys, i would be so poor from modding my car to keep up.
