Have the body shop get the bumper from Eric... they cost about the same.

NO BS, but I took off on a 05 300C (V8 340HP --stock!) from a dead stop. I love my G

So, like I said, not sure what the gains are, but they sure make you haul

definitely picks up alot better and alot more power in the higher RPM's

You gained 15 lbs of torque from about 2500 RPMs until rev limit and about 1 hp up top. But the OP doesn't have a revup motor... his gains won't be the same. He'll probably see a few horses up top, and the mod will probably change his fuel curve, also helping acceleration.
