Yea, lol wouldn't make sense to use ED since they currently make them already. This will be a urethane parts, ED does not make urethane.

No news right now. I mean I still want to do it, but trust me it's a HUGE investment. We'll get it done soon, but the guys that will make it said they can't do anything for at least 3 months regarding the bumper. With that said, I had to Shift to other stuff I wanted to do, like flared front fenders.

I think a smaller and more subtle bumper wing like the c5.r bumper looks a lot better. It looks more like it belongs on the car.

Maybe a happy medium between the 2. If too many people disagree on the style it will never get done. I can see how a little smaller looks good. Too small and it will look barely different than stock.

Looks good, but since it's urethane rather than fiberglass, I assume it would be heavier. I'm sure many would not be interested in adding weight to their Corvette.

A little search will reveal that the stock bumpers are also urethane:
