New bumper option!

First of all, i can't believe that i am the first Z owner to try this mod. The results are absolutely incredible! The amount of downforce this thing provides is unrivaled! My scale reads 117#, and that when its standing still, imagine the gains at highway speed! I recommend this to anyone who has experienced that unstable feeling their Z has at high speed wants their Z to handle better under such conditions.

Dude, I don't think that's Photoshop... I think it's the real thing, it's just resting on the bumper mounts!

Look at the shadows on the photo's that cover both the hood, headlight buckets and transition onto that mad bumper. That's real dude...

Yeah, that is definitely not photoshopped. It most likely is just resting on his bump-stoppers until he gets his MSA type II kit on.

Too bad he didn't have it on there a little earlier... It might have saved that smashed headlight bucket/fender and marker light...
