Nice! How long to install? I see you did the mesh on for the fogs, did it come with the mesh in the middle?

Looks nice Do all Lorinser bumpers have that gap inbetween the hood and the front bumper? Right below the grille? I'm getting my bumper painted right now, might even get it back today

Uneven bumper

Did you notice that there is a slight bump on the bumper, underneath the grill area (facing the car, on your left side)....could be angle of shot???

Nice set up.

I have the same rim/tire setup. My rims are 19x8.5 all around. Where did you find the ADR Sterling in a 19x9.5?
