Default anyone like this bumper?
found this while searching through Hot Rod mag online. from the distance shot i thought it may be alright but after seeing the up close one it kinda makes me . the spoiler looks like shamu himself designed it. says its the 2001 Morgan Motorsports 421 Sd Pontiac Firebird. you be the judge.

From far away it reminds me of the late 80's early 90's styles. I agree

the best way to put it is that its 'diffrerent'

it stands out. not in a good way, and not in a bad way. its just .. different.

I kind of like it. It's different. I really don't like the mesh stuff they have around the foglights though. The spoiler really sucks

Wow, that looks amazing on a black WS6. I like how the flip lights are flushed to the bumper.
