It's his car, but it doesn't stop us from begging him not to make it look like ****.

Is this it? Doesn't look HORRIBLE.....but it is a bit on the import side but I think this car pulls it off ok.

It could be one thing if the design were well executed, but it isn't. The front "grille" looks wavy and the place where it meets with the headlights looks off. It's just awful.

My opinion I don't like it. However it is your car. If you want to paint yours to simulate being coated in baby poop, you can do whatever you want. It's yours Welcome to America.

WOW, I saw this bumper on a stang across the street from me yesterday! Me and the GF both commented on how hideous it was and I had no idea where you could buy such an Abomination! Small World!

I apologize Eismann, it's easy to forget being silly rarely comes across electronically. I offer this to add to my post But seriously, if you want to know where the inspiration comes from for this bumper, well it's a GM. Blasphemy!

Not my cup of tea, but if you could do something about the grill, it'd be tolerable.

The positive about it. It certainly looks different. If you're about setting yourself apart from the crowd and aren't afraid to stand alone to make a statement about being unique and different. Then this kit can work. Paint matched to your vehicle will make it look clean as if it belongs and it will work. People can't imagine it on their own cars because they have their own image of what their car should look like. Many times its trying to copy what they saw on the "other" guy's car.

We've all seen the same scoops and wings and spoilers. And yes many of them look cool. But, everyone has it already. So the statement isn't typically about being unique or a one-off. Its more about....how can I look like the others?

I say...if you're ready to commit to painting it and prepping this to work on your car. Go for it.

You'd likely get a LOT more positive comments than the "Meh" attitude. Besides, aren't you tired of seeing the same stuff on everyone's car already. Sometimes the plain sleeper look makes a bigger statement than the totally tricked out look.

Different strokes for different folks.
