Default CME ebay style.....And what?!?!

Well, i know im going to get ridiculed by some of you for this, but i did it anyhow. I got the ebay CME tips. The quality is top notch, and yea, their not as thick as SLP's with the rolled lip, but on the other hand, i can actually afford these!!! They dont look bad up front looking at them. But i can already feel it coming.... "oh, but they dissappear when looking at the sides". Each to his own, i like them.

Who cares what the haters say. I think it looks good and most importantly, you like it.

Got any pics from underneath the bumper?

^^lol, yeah about the front ones, now its about the rear, JK!

yeah CME looks good definitely can't go wrong with that.
Damnit, this only reminds me that I need a valence as well! My wallet is shrinking in size.

if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to have the valence painted?
