Looks nice to me too...
...for a C6.
Seriously, I love the look of the C5 bumper with the dual/split fog light/intake coves. I think it is one of the best aspects of the C5 design.
Although this bumper isn't bad (and I've certainly seen worse), I never have understood the desire to mix generational components. Get rid of the pop up C5 lights and add this bumper and you've basically modeled a C6.
Just my .02!

I've seen it in person - the guy shows up once in a while at the Scottsdale Pavilions. He did the work himself - for which I give him a lot of credit for trying something different.
If you like the front of the C6, you might like this. Personally - that's the part of the C6 that I like the least. I admire his abilities and his effort, just don't care for the end result.

Nice work. Looks like he really likes the C6 - C6 fogs, markers, front fascia and wheels. The flat black B-pillar is interesting. He ID'ed 2FPerformance as the shop that did the work - does he work there?

Looks a lot like QuikZ06's "NEW body parts" front bumper that is in development...
