I was thinking of shaving the plate mount, i'll see I guess
If you look at the mugen bumper, the lower middle section was cut out and the fog area was all filled in. looks like cl9 fogs I think were added.
Then a modulo grille was chopped up and inserted in the open grille area of the mugen.

This is how I feel, I love the grille part, I love the side vents, not crazy about the big mouth it has but maybe different mesh and paint will make it look better.

People don't realize how much I had to pay in shipping/customs fees so that part makes it complicated.

it also arrived damaged so I have a few options...
if they reimburse me for shipping, I'm keeping it
if they don't, most likely it will be re-raffled but for the fees I have paid.

No offense, but I kinda figured that would happen with how meticulous you are about the parts that go on your car. I figured there would be no way you would accept that 1-off bumper.

Now someone else from the group will get it and paint their car purple lmao

Considering it was custom made, they did a decent job with it. It had some issues that needed to be redone that needed fiberglass work.

However it arrived cracked in 5 spots, and I was told don't worry, it's insured.

Considering I paid $650 for shipping and $135 in customs fees, you think they would take care of that. So when I asked for the $785 in costs back to get it repaired, they said they would refund me and
pick up the bumper. All good though, I have my modulo

Honestly, that modulo sitting behind it has better lines. I dug Mugen for its "rare" factor, but seems 1/2 of the FB group has that bumper now. And now there's a rep as well. Modulo looks better, IMO.

Yeah that's the sad part, everyone has the mugen, and the mvtuning looks identical so it's no so rare anymore, but then again there's ton's of modulo out there too so it's a preference thing I guess.
I'm going to try and mod the modulo, just need to find a body guy willing to do it for me.
