      Honestly cleans up and modernizes the car soo much. Looks great. Now i need to research and figure out how to do this..

      Is there a big difference in weight from the plastic bumpers?

            I got it from BMP, ridiculous price for no more than it is. Here's a link to it.

            Yes, just the normal H&R Sports. It sits a little lower than a coupe would, but rides nice.

            I don't think so by the time you have the structure behind the bumper the weight is about the same. In fact I think I read somewhere that the DB's are lighter.

            The rear is fairly easy on a later vert since it already has the lower rear arches I didn't have to modify the ends. I did trim them a little where they meet the fender line to get them lined up right. Jordan came over and helped me put them on since I'd never done it. I actually had both bumpers on and then took the front back apart when I got a new valance for it.

            I'll post pics of the back once I get the skirt put on, right now it looks funny and doesn't have the trim in place.

            Thanks guys!

                Trying to work a deal on a set of H&R race coilovers. I'd be selling the IE's if I do.

                    Nope, just hoping to get a deal on a used set.
