Every time we get a noob (or someone who's been to India more than 2 days) we have to train him all over again.

RawDogg, you can order the kit through Chad (www.rockblocker.com). I ordered a set (20%) awhile back and had not had the chance to put it on.

Getting used to it...

Um, OK.

I think I like it. Looks way different.

You need the A-Spec back bumper now or a Ron Jon original.

I just need an OEM back bumper cover

Personally, I think your car looks like total shit. You're gonna get rear ended(again) and you'll probably be at fault.

I think if you order from the rockblocker website you'll get the 20%. If you want the 35% then you need to ask for it via email or phone call.

I have the 20% and have experienced no problem from police at night. One pulled up right behind me at a stoplight the other day, maybe I got lucky. I believe there is a safety issue driving in bright sunlight. With turn signals on, I have to look hard to see them blinking even from a few feet away. Definately a violation of 24600 VC.

I love the deep ruby red but the safety issue concerns me. I'd like to see a 10% tint.
