    this front bumper is very nice (Challengeish), the OEM front intakes should have been shaped like this. I really like how from the angle of the pic you can see a continuity from the headlight down to the intake.

    this car appears to be set up for the track, so if you wouldn't mind witholding your negative wing comments. :D

    It might be the stock bumper cover, but with CF add-ons for the nostrils and side vents, plus a lip on the bottom. I think it looks good, especially on a track car.

    I'm guessing Fabulous is the brand name based on the windsheild banner.

    How does that work with the grills and side gills on the front air dam, it looks like they just put some carbon inserts in? Or is something that is actually functional.

    Looks like the painted the bumper and wheels black and then riveted some stuff around the inlets & outlets. Looks like crap IMO and poorly executed to boot.

    Yeah, I agree. The bumper looks very poorly executed. If you zoom in on the bumper, it looks as if it pokes out away from the car at the wheel well!! Also, it appears that the space between the hood and the bumper varies in distance from touching to an inch or more gap. Fabulous? I think not.

    "this car appears to be set up for the track, so if you wouldn't mind witholding your negative wing comments. "

    Are you talking about the wing on the 430 or on that bad boy next door to it!!!? ;)

    100% agree with Dave, who's description is posted quite diplomatically.

    As my father used to say: "Feh!!"

    The changes are not visually appealing. If they work to improve track performance then they are a good change. If not, someone ruined a lovely car.

    I thought it looked like rat bait, too, ie--a big bag of rice.
