Default Cut Front Bumper

I had a little accident with my front bumper and airwalker lip. I just spent $8k on LoveFab turbo setup and don't have money to fix right now. I cut all the bad parts out of the bumper and I just put the lip up next to it to see how it would look. I will probably end up with a J's style lip if I decide to keep this bumper. Tell me what you think and try not to bash me too hard! Thanks

For a quick fix until you get the money, it looks pretty good.

I think you did a really good job cutting your bumper . I wonder how it would look without the front grill there? Also, congrats on your lovefab kit ... I can't wait, mine is supposed to arrive next wed. You should just go with the cody look, the front mount with the huge whole cut in the front , it will look MEAN at least.

I was thinking of leaving the center grill out so you could see the intercooler but I also like the idea of keeping it hidden. Last summer there was a bunch of punk kids running around stealing front mounts. They still could but it would take them a while longer and run the risk of getting caught!

Agreed. There are used ones in Sebring FS right now.
But for a DIY, you did it very well... It's the side vents that I don't like. But the top and middle are okay!
