You are gonna need to have it modified to fit perfectly. So IMO i would not do it. Plus i guess im alittle bias toward them as well because i hate the look of the blitz. I think the two best looking fronts on those cars are the shine street lip and the wings west lip _____________________________ quote: ORIGINAL: pilsenblue Even tho My car looks great It will never be fast.

IMO i like the stock bumper with a lip on it, looks nice and clean  (in reply to bishops223) Post #: 4
