        I've had a complete late-model white front end in the garage for over a year now... still not tired of the current look.

              That would be a Ryan G. splitter. He is on the forum, with a shop in Auburn, Ca.

                    Hey guys just chiming in, I've got a 89 vert with metal bumpers and I did the rear tuck with no problem, but when I was going to do the front I realised that I have fog lights under the metal bumper. My question is whether I would have enought clearance to leave the fog lights on and still tuck the front bumper? anyone know if its possible to leave them on? thanks for the info.

                        What kind of polish did you use? I bought some polish by MOTHERS and it did nothing.

                            I drilled the one with air. Still pushed in, just all the oil dripped out over the course of a week and ate through the fresh paint on my front lip O.o

                              That's because the bumpers are coated. When they oxidize it's pretty much game over. I stripped mine step sanding from 80grit-2000grit. Toooook forever with power tools. About a week of sanding per bumper. It's hard to see, but u can see how that shit shines! 8)
