Default Shaved Bumper Installed

Ebay D&H Auto did me goood. 350$ painted and shipped GT rear shaved bumper. Was hesitant at first, but ultimately I said fuxk it and ordered it. came out amazing, paint matched up perfectly and fitment was ALMOST perfect, but unless I actually point it out, no one will notice.

and I got rid of those turndowns after the muffler. I can honestly say, I've fell in love with my exhaust once again.

Wow that **** is slicker than cheese crackers.

Zeek do you have larger pics? I might just order that up.

How well does the paint match? Is it a single stage or multi? What brand paint do they use?

Being the Silver metalic like you I can really see how nice that looks on there.

Also what fitment issues did you have?

I might buy this so I want to know exactly whats on your mind about it.

ill throw up some higher res pics tomorrow after i wash my car.

The paint matches just about perfectly, multi stage, dont know about what kinds of paint they used.

mmm no real fitment issues, it was just a little tough getting it on seeing as though i was doing it al by my self XD. but yea, you cant beat that price

I love having a shaved rear, it looks much cleaner IMHO. What's amazing is that alot of people I've talked to said the aftermarket rear bumpers tend to fit better than the factory ones
