Default Thoughts on this front bumper?

Theres very little options for front bumpers to look a little more aggressive and I came across this builder in LA. What do you guys think? I kinda like it and it looks better than Ivan tampi's.

It'd be better without that badge, but it's definitely the best aftermarket bumper I've seen for this car.

I like it a lot. Definitely more of an aggressive look than the OEM bumber.

It looks good, but it appears they build custom cars, not sell parts.

Looks great! Real nice contrast to the Arctic White. Very good.

Interesting ideas.

But those side mirrors remind me of Nemo’s underdeveloped fin.

I’m guessing they are video cameras and not mirrors.

I like the front bumper. Headlights and side mirrors are hideous.
