Are you re-using the front bumper or did you upgrade?

They aren't awful, but there are some broken mounting tabs on the front and some cosmetic damage on both. Not bad, but the car came that way.. Shoot me a pm...

I'm very excited about it. I'm not sure I know anyone else that has done it, I might be the pioneer! Fabrication begins in 2 weeks. I'm going to document everything and post it here as well as my Instagram. It's going in for paint tomorrow! I'm pretty excited to get it back from paint! Then make it go fast and stop fast!
