Default Carbon Silver- Just washed, snapped some updated pictures

It's been probably a year and a half since I've posted my car.

Here's how it was:





I moved from Ft. Myers (nice roads) to Tallahassee (awful roads) so I raised my car a little to make sure my diffuser wouldn't get torn off...
Well that failed. Slowly but surely, it got destroyed and I finally removed it when it split open. My front and rear is going to be replaced when I get a week off and can take my car into the body shop. Highway rock chips ate my bumper as well (where it meets the fenders is the worst).


Anyways, here it is now:










(exhaust will be polished soon, it's embarrassing to have such a dirty HKS)

Update:

I almost ordered a new bumper... but now I can't decide.

I think I have it down to 3:
Amuse replica
Chargespeed type 1 replica
ings type e longnose replica

I'm definitely ordering the chargespeed replica rear w/ cf insert and I can't wait for that.

Any thoughts either way on these? Not sure if the second two will flow.

Chargespeed type 1 will be PERFECT with your setup. It flows with Amuse sides flawlessly.

Longnose is cool and all, but your gonna tear that thing up driving, trust me.
