Interested in your rear bumperettes if you are selling them. That is for the right price.

I hate the front ones, but for some reason, the rears don't bother me.

Can't wait to see it when you are done.

I had my rear done as well. I like the look. It cleans up the lines nicely. Good job on yours. I'm sure you are loving it

for some reason I don't mind the basket handle. if I ever upgrade to an RS wing, then it will go

I've been bumped a couple of times in my SC from behind from inattentive drivers and would rather rub off a scuff on the rubber bumperette than have the rear bumper resprayed because of a minor bump. They're staying on the 993 for that reason, however I would agree the front ones are all but useless!
