Impul Replica, Please Give Feedback, Good or Bad

So, finally got my replica Impul kit and as expected the fitment is not 100%.

On the left side where it house the clear corner's, the hole is not big enough and on the right side, while the hole is bigger, its a little off.
Another troubling problem is where the foam absorber that runs across the entire front, I had to remove, just would not fit.
Also, the headlights are off but then again, I only screwed in 2 of 4 screws.

At first I did not like it but after I took a break from looking at it and relooked, I'm very pleased with how it looks. I'm planning to paint the lip black.

LET THE BASHING BEGIN!!

Silver or black that mesh looks like ***. Reminds me of a Honda back in the late 90's..

a mesh with bigger holes, thicker lines, and plastic/// one closer to OEM size looks better.
