Some under construction pics of my car...
Hey guys,
I fitted a csl bumper to my vert, I am on the fence about keeping it. First off it needs some body work done to it to get it perfect, because its def not up to par for show. I figure I'll share some pics with you guys. I think I might sell it and go with a front lip instead. Opinions? btw, I know the mesh is supposed to be black

wow! what a transformation. looks nice to me, but I cant tell any imperfection if any.
anyway if all depends on how much your total investment amounts to be and how please you are with the results (ROI)

I Think it looks good. what are you doing with the old bumper.
i might be interested. The CSL gives it the clean look and aggressive look to go with you wheels. I say keep it. |

Al, You're a trip! Car's are a money pit, you never get back what you put in. Its worth it so as long as you have some fun along the way. The fit is pretty good, it just needs some prep work and a respray, theres a couple molding marks on the top. I am a huge perfectionist and cannot leave it like that. I would get it fixed but I've come across some other mods I want to do so the front fascia will have to wait.

It looks like I might sell this CSL bumper, would you like to buy it? I'll give you a great deal, much cheaper than getting it from Euro Spec. I would love to keep it but I want the money so I can build a custom sub enclosure. I suddenly am craving some bass after seeing someone elses setup!

resale wise, the CSLs type bumper is not for everyone, it certainly wasnt for me when I shop for mine. Layman new to the /M world rather have two fogs lights too IMHO
but the CSL looks hot on yours

Thanks guys, the bumper is sold! I think I might get a front lip instead. Just need to find something else I like. The csl front is a little too hardcore for the theme and styling of my car. It belongs on someones car who has alot of crazy mods, which seems to be how this has worked out
