It's more aggressive looking than the stock bumper so if that's what you prefer I'd say go for it.

bumpers

I was gonna get the gt3 rear bumper myself, but decided to stick with stock after another car bumped me in the back. Those bumperetts work! I may eventually still get the gt3, but as a matter of function, the stock ones are better. I do have the the gt2 front bumper on though. Looks amazing!

Both really nice, I sort of like the one on the right better with the rear defuser look... Bob

Both are good, but I prefer the stock one. Both are really much better than my stock 2001 where you can see the bottom half of the muffler.

Nice job! The bumper cover and mirrors are nice additions.

Mirrors look very nice. Did the shop take the guts out of the original mirrors and swapped them over?

I do indeed. Your paint guy looks really competent. I'm sure you could come up with something fantastic! Just let me know when you are ready to go.

Great Mods

I am loving those mods. Definitely two that I would like to undertake myself. How much were the mirrors? I am on the Cult-Werk site and don't see a price for them anywhere let alone a way to order them.
