buckeye, what do you mean by "cut mine down a little". Im thinking this would look pretty nice on my on my black sedan, and if it were a minor gap the black paint could kinda hide it. Im have a steady hand but dont want to be spending more than about 4-5 hours if I were to fit this.

LOL, idk how I'm planning to pull it off in NY, forget winter, the regular streets can tear a bumper off if your low enough, thats why no drop for this DD, also hoping it don't scrape coming in/out of the garage

Thats the problem with the oem bumper, I can't confirm though. The trim design on the aftermarket bumper is slightly different than oem, thats why I believe theres a lot more gap on the sides...on black you can't even notice the gap

I just had to cut down the top part where the plastic clips go. and I had to trim a little bit on the bottom. Nothing on the sides or anything that you would see. It was just a little big. Grant had to do the same thing with his. Once I trimmed it it fit fine.Just make sure your buying the one for the 05-06 not the 03-04.

Heres another pic that I really like for some reason of the grille.

Nope, it's 05-06 and it will be up for sale soon, I'll try locally first, unless I get a better offer to ship...

Kurookie - hybrid between KurumaZ and Rookie... thats why I came up with that name... it was being called Kurukie and Kurookie... the later is what stuck with most ppl... Viet has never even referred to it by that name... some ppl just call it the rookie bumper.

There really is no "official" name - but Karookie isnt it.
