I'm talking to the factory to offer you guys the variety of options - with PDC, without, etc.
Please watch the site for options.
or, better yet, offer up yours here so we can just add them to the site.
right now, only the kind that phil ordered is available, but within a few short weeks, I'm sure we can get many more.

"Well after the long wait the install has finally arrived. I preordered the bumper a few weeks back, they are probably in stock now. It was about $400 shipped. Recieved it this week, took the car in friday and got it back today painted and installed. Fitment is great on it, looks identical to OEM bumper. Can't be any more happy with how it looks. w00t.gif Not sure if I'm gonna get a splitter for it due to the bad roads. Here are the pics, let me know if you guys have any questions.
Sorry for the bad pics from iPhone, I'll take some with the rebel when the rain stops."
Tex phil,
Where did you get it painted and installed and if you dont mind, about how much did it cost you to get this done? Thanks!

I got it painted locally. Any body and paint shop should be able to do this. I sent out a company email at work asking for suggestions and got alot of good replies for this shop so thats the one I went with. If you live in San Antonio the place is called Memitos. Painting would probably range between 200-300.
