well this is the front on my celica now, but i was thinking the squared edges dont really flow with the rest of the car, and skirts. any ideas on a better front bumper? and getting this one again and just fitting it better is also an option.

oh and i would really perfer if it was urethane, we all know how annoying fiberglass can be.

damn small world i live right off kendall, when was the last time u were out here? they have done a lot of developing, its gettin better over here everyday. and i was in Oakland just about a week ago.

oh and u cant just buy a GT-4 bumper and put it on right? u need a different hood latch and a few other parts right? i think i am gonna go with the 404 lip or the ss-iii spliters. the fit on most aftermarket fronts r horrible.
