what i do is before i dry the car with towels i get in the car and drive through the neighborhood going about 80-90 mph then go back home and dry the water off. it tends to get ALOT of water out of the creases and cracks especially that front bumper where the bumper and the black grill part meets. if you dont want to do that lol just get on your knees kinda push the bumper down lightly to expand the crack and blow REALLY REALLY hard till you run out of breath lol it'll all come out. Good Luck !

Yeah, the bumper holds onto water directly between the grille and bumper.. annoooooying. The only thing I've tried was to stuff a microfibre towel into the crack and swish it back and forth and let it sit there to absorb water. Needless to say, there's always water dripping out of the grille the next day..

If you have an air compressor blowing out the water might work

That's what you all get for mounting GT bumpers. Posers!! J/K. V6 bumper holds a lot of water also. Spartan, you ever get your car fixed or is that still a sore spot??
