I dont remember if the freeway was next to it or not. But he said he makes them. Real or not...it looks the same and fits well, so who cares??

Blue Dream, has Stephen ever returned your messages ? I recently discovered his work after looking through the forums more often and would love to get one of his front bumpers for my 04' Coupe !
I sent him a message on the R1 Autoworks Instagram page a day ago, but I understand he seems to have been in-active since late December on Driver.

If you have any word about getting in touch with him, please let me know !

I've never been able to find him. My advice at this point would be to shop somewhere else.

His things seem cheaper on his website but realize that doesn’t include shipping cost , just order from outcast or directly from manufacturer like VIS. People are not getting their items or getting refunds I would stay away

what are you looking to buy ?

Darn, I’m really interested in the IPL style front bumper he was selling. Can’t seem to find something like it anywhere else
