Default AIR Rear bumper

Anyone have any pics or have installed the AIR rear bumper? Im considering purchasing one but wanted to see if anyone had one on, if so how was the install? I was thinking about this and a custom borla muffler. As I cannot make the turbo jump for the next few years due to the fact Im trying to be somewhat responsible and am saving for a house w/ a 2 car garage...(necessity) -THX-chris

Ive got pics of a Gt Racing bumper, similar, but not as boxy. (which I think looks better)

I just took this off AIR's website, is this the one you mean?



Performance products also sells something that looks like this one. However, i'd prefer the turbo valance for the rear just my little ol' opinion though. . .

Yeah, that's kinda the problem with those bumpers, even though they look sweet...
I'm going with a bumper pad delete myself, I'll keep the original strength of the bumper, but of course be prone to dings..

How do you guys think the black 951 above would look with 18" Fikse FM-10 wheels instead of the FM-5 wheels and a Euro bumper (with the rubber strip removed) instead of the AIR bumper?
