Thanks man. I'm really stoked with the way it's turning out. I'll be at the shop tomorrow morning sanding the bumper. I'm gonna try to have it finished by next weekend. It's hard just working a couple of hours at a time. Saleen needs better instructions. It was like a flippin' puzzle.

I didn't think it'd be that hard to put on. There isn't anything informative online about putting this on?

I'm sure its in there somewhere, but what are you doing about the center exhaust? Looks great btw... I'm slightly biased though, lol

Jaye, that is going to look SICK! As always. Man, your car is starting to become one of my favorites on the site!

Hey thanks Mike I appreciate it.

I got the rear bumper all sanded and. prepped today. We filled in the Saleen inset lettering so that it'll be all smooth in the back.

It was pretty easy. I just pulled the trunk liner back on the passenger side, tapped into the green and one of the black wires and soldered the harness in. No problems at all. Probably the easiest of the steps.
