Default Nice A$$

I own a 2000 black ws6. I love the looks of the car in all angles except the rear. I don't care for the bumber too much and was wondering if there was an alternate that actually looks decent. I hate to say body kit but if theres one that actually looks clean I would def. be interested. If theres any pics out there I would love to see them. Thanks

whats wrong with the bumper?
your choices are pretty much limited to a couple different options. There's the firebird style, TA style, or firebird + aftermarket lower valance style. I think either GMPP or SLP made a "firebird GT" kit, that was added below the rear bumper also.

Isn't the lower portion (around license plate and exhaust tips) colored black versus body color?

I've wondered what a TA would like with a "cut-off" bumper like a Mustang or 'Vette. Here are a couple quick PhotoChops. Keep in mind this were made quickly with little skill. I personally don't like the results.

You got an exhaust on the car?

Get the right tips and the bumper won't bother you anymore. Maybe some letter fills, light work, something like that. There are options to liven it up and draw your eye away from the bumper.
