That was a Fang chin spoiler, but it was comparable to the fiberglass one from american muscle. Honestly, get the cdc one made of plastic. That fiberglass does not give at all, so it doesn't bend, it just breaks if you hit a pretty good pot hole. I had to fiberglass that thing back together so many times that I finally took it off.

My car's not lowered or anything if that matters.

Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted here, but I thought I'd share some pics of a little incident I was involved in recently. My apartment complex shares a parking garage with a restaurant, and as I was on my was to work one morning a frustrated employee was taking her lunch break and decided to back out of her spot without looking behind her. When I saw her reverse lights come on I knew she didn't have room, so I came to a stop, and before I could throw it in reverse or honk the horn...bam. The best part was the fact that she came out screaming and cursing at me like it was my fault. That's ok though, because she got a ticket for failing to yield and her insurance is reimbursing be for my deductible (cops can't assign fault on private property so I had to file a claim with my own insurance). Getting it fixed tomorrow, total repair cost is close to $2800.
I snuck down a snapped a pic of the car that hit me. A f****** 99 dodge neon. The bitch stepped out and said "This is a brand new car." I just looked at her and rolled my eyes, no sense in arguing with people who clearly don't have a clue. She just needs a new taillight. My repair bill would have totaled this car. I hope that cigarette she was lighting when she was backing up was worth it.

Thanks for the pic and the warning!
I will be sure to keep my eyes pealed and avoid driving anywhere near a "NEW" blue dodge neon with a broken passenger tail light. LOL
Good to hear you are getting it all worked out. ;-)

You may not have any issues, but mine was more of an ordeal that it was worth.

I thought about it, but the GT bumper doesn't look right to me unless you can do the side skirts and rear bumper as well, and I just don't have the capital for all that. And I needed my car back pretty quickly, I'm graduating from college this weekend and have some out of town functions to attend to shortly thereafter.
