+1 on uniqueness. im not sure if i like or dislike that rear bumper, i guess your car pulls it off nicely! and i agree with everyone else, the amuse front is sick!

overall, i like the car

ill take pics once we get clear skies, and to end any confusion, the front is a replica from AI and the rear/sides are replicas from shine. I didnt want anyone thinking i was faking the funk

Are you sure that chargespeed bumper is authentic because mine fits 100% like OEM. That rear bumper is killer btw!

How can you say that when you bought the car with the bumper on it? Do you know what the installing shop did when they put it on?

I'm sure he can tell if there was any modifications done to the bumper to make it fit properly, as well as the fact that he is friends with the person he bought it from, so i'm sure he asked...
I could be wrong, but it's just my assumption. Just seems like you kind of jumped on him

Well, since his bumper is painted, then no. You can't tell if anything was done to the bumper just by looking at it.

^^^ this is true. my strosek took days of fitment work to get it right. if you remove it you cant tell. the chargespeed front fitment is a little off on the passenger side, but the body shop shut down before we could fix it. its fairly simple just repositioning the bolt holes.ill take better pics once the weather clears up. i was walking out of the store today and the way it was sitting it didnt look like i needed to go any lower.
