Kind of reminds me of the (new) Camaro front end.

I'm not a fan but I don't think it's horrible, either. My biggest concern with it is that it may look strange from the side.

I'd like to see this.

What bumper!!! I was too busy looking at what is behind the steering wheel. I can't help it, I'm just a Sexy Senior Citizen.

Cheers,

I think it looks kinda cool. The rectangular little foglights sitting up there look very volkswagen-ish.

My black bumper. It's basically the Texas Performance fiberglass bumper painted in a standard (Home Depot) satin black. Not a great picture, but you get the idea. My boys (11 y/o!) note that it balances the black vinyl rear spoiler. I think it definitely looks correct, and actually consistent with 1980s themes (Ferrari, Supra, Z).



This is when it was painted red. Also very dirty. I got out on track right after a Boxster had drooled oil on 2/3 of the track surface. They dumped a bunch of oil-dry on it, and my run group got to "clean up" the oil-dry by blowing it around. The only good part is that they charge you for the oil-dry if you spill fluids.
