Default CS6 finally done...

Well about 2 months ago I ordered a CS6 front bumper from Shelby and finally got it a week ago, but thats were the story begins when I got the bumper you could see that it would need some body work and Shelby said that I could send it back and get one in better condition but they would not know how long it would be before they could get me one, so I decided to go ahead and keep this one and pay a little more for body work. So when I went to pick it up I was glad it was finally over but then I found out that the bumper was so thick that when they were prepping it for paint they baked and washed it four times and it was still oily so their is a chance that once it gets a rock chip or damage it will peel but luckily the guy told me this and he only charged me for paint. So for any of you who are thinking about doing this you might want to reconsider. Bellow are some pictures and it looks good but all i can do is hope it lasts

Looks great man, Definatly needs some stripes or a hood to finish it off though. Not to many people running this front end.
