Those canards slice and dice through any wind resistance and adds 20 horsepower! Dyno proven product

Here is a picture of my second bumper without the paint scheme and canards:

Gotta pay to play.
Vertex has a dealer in the US as well.

800$ isn't really expensive for a decent front bumper that's very easy to repair when the time comes.

Well said

Fitment is great and the material is very durable!

This question is off topic from this thread, but anyway, i never had my starter replaced, but why not just call any shops that does this and get estimates, rather than asking us this question.
