I just got a car from the shop after installing Umnitza front bumper and side skirts. First of all - thank you Umnitza - there were no major fitment issues. Looks clean as you can tell from the picture.

OEM M-tech rear bumper is next. Hope i can find one sooner

Let me know what you guys think. Not professional pictures of course, just took it with a pocket camera.

Thank you Tony! I used "Cupertino Auto body" in Campbell. The reason I chose them because I work with them on my company cars, and they gave me a very good deal.
