Definitely liking the new bumper; looks awesome. And the grille really sets it off too. By the way, are those blue LED's on the inside of the hood?

Edit: Seems that I caught you in the middle of posting! I thought you were going to ask for a comparison of body style with the new bumper compared with OEM. I like those chrome mesh style wheels much better. And your blue caliper and slotted discs look wicked!

i'm also trying to save on fuel. 20's for a daily isn't easy. gas isn't cheap.

The older look . The bronze G35 wheels would be good if you go to the track or somethin but I would leave the polished wheels for daily driving. Your car looks hot as it is.
