if you trim the pad you won't have any gaps under the headlights.

you may need new fender liners

Can you post more of a side shot?

I want to know what the aero kit looks like from the side with that bumper as most people who get the bumper don't do the aero kit.

Thanks for the pic. I like it. I think I might do the mix-n-match myself.

What about your grill and fog light housing, etc that goes in the bumper? Dealer also? It looks good IMO, nicely done.

Fogs can be reused, new grille is needed...along with the fender liners and bumper, fog surrounds, etc

I'm not a fan of the upgraded bumper with the aero sides/rear bumper lip but like everyone has said job well done!

Was all that 400 from the dealer or just the bumper alone?

looks sweet. Is your car lowered? Also i want to add that bumper and aero kit, but i hear they dont sell the aero kit anymore. Whered u get ur kit. Serona? Also since i have little money at the moment, if i buy the new bumper $400 plus all the grill and fog parts, itll be like $800. Plus the aero kit is around $500? How much can i expect to sell my stock 06 bumper for?

Nice job and thanks for mentioning where you got the grill. Did you find the midnight black grill on car-parts or did you have the chrome grill painted?

Man you have to put the sides and rear lip it makes the car look beasty trust me... The bumper with stock everything looked like it didn't match since bumper is lower... Do the sides and rear you won't regret it ull thank me hahaha

Thanks, I remember seeing that thread before but my search only turned up the grill for the m37/m56.

Maybe I'll plastidip mine and put a glossy coat on it. I'll go do some research in the big plastidip thread.
