Before this bumper i had my e-1 on for about a good 2.5 years if not more. I never had an issue with the bumper sagging, breaking or cracking. blackbyrd is right about one thing though. After that much time and driving u will get some rock chips. The biggest one i had was about 1/3 the size of a pea. The rest looked just like the rock chips from the stock polyurethane bumpers. In all fairness though, if ur were to damage the bumper some how. U could always get it fiberglassed on the damaged spot and repaint. Presto new bumper.

Are you talking about the nostril openings feeding the air box? Smoothing them over like on the white car?

Thanks! The grilles I made have some dimension, they are about 1" thick. I may eventually extend the openings 5-6" deeper to better approximate the Heritage TA. I thought about filling the air intake openings, but decided I like the detail. Maybe I should have...

Even if you don't have turbo, would it be dumb to get that front bumper just for the look?

It's not called the "turbo" bumper cover. It's just a different bumper cover period. Buy what you like.

Did you see this thread?
