How do you think this would look

Thinking of getting the Redlinemax bumper
http://www.redlinemax.com/catalog/pr...oducts_id=1398

Here's a couple pics of my car






What do you guys think? Good aesthetic upgrade? Should I use the grill I have and just a diamond mesh on the bottom opening?

Some members already have this bumper installed but I am amazed that you were able to get into their web site since they are out of business.

I like that one on your photobucket. Its does look low up front but i think the car is dropped..looks sweet though. $350 isnt bad for a nice looking bumper. That, and the redlinemax bumper are best looking ones i have seen.

thats the bumper i was talking about i called them today and was talking to one of the guys from there they seem really cool to talk.. but no one has been able to answer my question so i guess i will have to keep sreaching for the answer... i think that that bumper looks better the redline one.. so if anyone knows if this bumper will fit on my 07 please let me know..

no it will not, just like an 07 bumper cannot be put on an 04-06, few guys thought about it cuz the 07 has factory fogs in it, but the headlight housing and few small things are differnt and make the bumper a differnt shape. As for the redline bumper, its the same as the bodykitz bumper, i dont see where you guys are getting a difference. I have the bodykitz . org bumper, it is too low, and its made of fiberglass not a good combo, but im the only one around here to have it so i deal with it lol

ok can u tell me the main that ur saying about the headlights cause i also had this conversation with the guy from bodykits he told me that one of the customers he has bought this kit and had no problem installing it.. i mean its fiberglass how how would it be to modify it to fit the 07 unless its a major difference..

This bumper is too low, though it looks good. My concern here is if you hit anything sticking up out of the ground, even a small bump, you will be very upset. It will probably crack and wreck your bumper. Now you may be a very meticulous driver, but the roads are unpredictable. Do yourself a favor and don't spend your money on it!

I guess you guys are right, I'll skip the bumper as it's probably just too low.

Maybe instead of getting a new bumper I'll just have my lower bumper painted white to match the rest.

I just don't want to be bottoming out that bumper which I'd probably be doing daily.

I like the grill, it brings the lines of your car together. Nice look, what did the set cost you?
