    Meh, you guys can have it. I'd go to the Lexus dealer and hand over the cash for a fully-loaded ISF in a heartbeat.

    Or maybe put a down payment on this baby.

    And then put my blue LEDs on either one when they arrive :D

    Well, I was able to install the rear bumper after lots of work... it ended up fitting pretty well considering the whole back is shifted over.

    I don't even like it anyway, I might not take pics. Especially since the rusted dents are all still there. Meh. I really don't care about the car much anymore, it's fun to drive as is :)

    I got my LEDs in today! :) Wowza these are bright!

    The bad news is I really don't like the bumper. Maybe it will grow on me, probably not. I'm out of ideas now.

    I kinda like it from the side, but from the back, it's all wrong. (no, the car is not washed or clean)

    It sort of has the look I wanted, but it's complete fail.

    Cut the fins, paint that part black, get the blue done professionally.
    OR sell it, get JDM bumper lol (I like this idea better.)

    Yeah I know, you don't like fins lol. Yes, that is rust where the paint is missing from the accident (well from hitting it with a hammer to refit the tail lights)
    I only like it from the side.
    Yeah, I hate the body kit look. fail. The only thing I like about my car right now is the front angle.
    If I keep this bumper, the fins are gone for sure. But it's just too wide at the bottom, and there's no neat horizantal separation between the blue and black on the back... you can see there's a line or crease on the side, but not on the back. Like you would get with a bumper and an add on lip.

    Of course the blue will be done professionally eventually lol.

    But I've already figured out my next option... well it was my other option all along until I destroyed the stock bumper.

    carbon fiber lip on the stock bumper (pretty much this, except for the drifting lol).

    and I'll paint the lips of course.

    ^^^ You nailed it! That's exactly what I think. I like the side, but the back is just hideous. So the bumper has to go! lol. $1000 and many months down the drain.

    It's fixable I'd say. Lose the fins then paint it all blue, and go from there. One step at a time.

    That was my idea before I even put it on the car, but now that it's on, I see how bad it really is. I'd rather try to sell it on CL locally first.

    I actually dont think it looks too bad, other than the fact that it looks like a step on the back of your car.
