Aftermarket front bumper question

Has anyone else purchased the StrafeSpeed front bumper? Does anyone have pictures of install and/or completed and painted? Has anyone had any problems with the quality StrafeSpeed parts? Thanks. Feel free to PM.

Ask Dustin for the pic of my car I sent him or he can post it here. I cut the bumper and made it about 1.5 inches lower to match my custom side skirts, and molded rear.

I haven't seen any pics of one installed and painted yet. What are you plans for sides and rear? Its an aggressive front that would warrant doing other exterior mods to pull it off IMO.

Here is the K2 sedan front from Strafe. The quality is really good and I only had a slight fitment issue with the side marker lights and where the bumper lines up to the hood.





I also didn't like the integrated grill so I'm in the process of turning it into this

Actually it looks sexy as hell! I'm jealous, yet I have the same bumper sitting in my garage right now. Arrg! Somebody please just freakin shoot me before I go insane!!!

You told me you got the StrafeSpeed Front for the OEM grill, but you have a gialla style grill in the pic. Did you get the e-bay gialla grill and install that?

Any issues running without the undertray?
