Lol, I love to see old threads resurrected. Thank you for the compliments. There is sad story though. About 3 months after those last pictures were taken, I rear-ended some guy at about 7 MPH and it destroyed the bumper. There is one downside to custom work - you can't easily replace it. After getting the car fixed and a new OEM bumper put on, I put the car back to stock. Drove it like that for over a year before I traded it in for a new 09 GTS
