Rodney (TSUNAMISTYLES) was great to deal with. Always answered my pm's and actually shipped the product when promised.

now we need pics of it installed! Congrats on getting the bumper in, looks like you're pretty good with bodywork / paint. I assume it's what you do?
Did I mention we need pics of it installed???

LOL, I got the INGS front bumper I am not going to use I can sell you for a good deal. It's the same as in that pic Alfy posted.
Let me know how much and I'll think about it, I doubt I have enough money right now but that might give me the incentive to go find some freelance work.

and yes, I do paint/bodywork for a living
LOL, of course it is....the angle of the picture makes it look crooked. It may be a little bit actually since my CAI sits right on top of it....not much room in there
I'd let it go for $200. Let me know. I will have it for awhile, just sitting at work taking up space.

Hawkeyes all the way!
You should join up on our little Facebook group, we're going to try to organize a big meet for spring and maybe it'll happen when you're in the area. There's a link in my sig.

Ok, let's get back on topic here. I decided to bake the bumper today with a heat lamp to accelerate the process. I installed the mesh, then installed the bumper, then wetsanded the clear and buffed it. It looks good with the factory appearance package....I am up in the air now whether to install the INGS side skirts and rear bumper skirts. What do you guys think?

lookin' pretty good man. looks aggressive with your fmic.
only problem i see is the ings sideskirts might be lower than the tsunami front end. try it on first and if you don't mind it, go for it.
it looks pretty good right now with the OEM aero flares.
