I don't understand the point of molding it to the bumper if you're going to paint it a different color than the bumper anyway. The whole point of molding it is to make it look seamless. If you paint it a different color, you're making a visual demarcation anyway, so molding it would be useless in my opinion.

i don't like the fact that it looks like a 2 piece...and the 2 sided tape is already starting to show some gaps...its just gonna be two toned without that line separating the bumper and the valance. Unless i can get my body guy to make it look amazing without molding it in

sick bro... ive been wanting to see that exhaust setup on our cars... i have the corsa premiums right now. do you have any straight shots from the back? a custom etched exhaust plate would look sick back there imo.

Yeah i've had the custom etched exhaust plate in mind for quite a while...6LE actually suggested it too...i believe we'll work something out soon (hopefully this friday when i see em at the bobs meet) and slap it on!

I'll post up pics straight from behind in a minute

For some reason it looks better in person straight from the back than in the pics...must be the lighting
