Hey - they only cost about $280 from the dealer and another $200 to paint and install.....You can't get a lip done for that, or possibly close to that at least.

I measured everything too, and the 06 is only 1/4" higher than the 05 WITH the OEM front spoiler.

Yes, you should definitely go for the 06 sport bumper I just got my 06 sport bumper put on my 05 G along with the 06 headlights. Aesthetically more pleasing to my eyes
