Car looks great - mine's also black, and I've been considering bumper options when I finally repaint the front end... I was thinking about turbo bumper, but now I have a decision to make!
Now, just get that car out of the clouds and to proper (RS) height !!!

I actually opted for the NB euro bumper so I could eventually do the RS splitters and tail... I love that look. Some day...

I removed the RS splitters from my MY94 cab and replaced with the standard NB splitters because I got too tired of all the driveway scrapping and having to repaint/repair them every year. Just my $0.02.

You can probably drive up to a steep driveway and take some measurements as to just how much additional clearance you have.
BTW your car is looking good...

Hey Dane... glad to hear the move's almost over. I'm heading out of town for the weekend but am generally around after that. Let me know when you're gonna be in the area and I'll roll out the red carpet!
