    What can you do with.

    What can you add or change to a stock bumper to make it look more aggressive? Something like a Cupra R lip or a carbon fiber lip. i searched and all i found was aftermarket bumpers or usp fronts.

    What other choices are there that require little work or add ons to the stock lower part of the bumper?

    Remove the tow hook cover, replace the tow hook with a big one that sticks out, and paint it red. People will think you're a hardcore track guy... To complete the effect, trash the whole car a little. You know, battle scars, some "paint swap" spots

    Re: What can you do with.

    Well if you haven't already, ditch the license plate holder and plastic weld the holes in... it looks a hell of a lot smoother if not more "aggressive."

    Face it, OEM is rather docile looking. Learn to love it for what it is, not what you want her to be... zing!

    Otherwise find the right kit and stack ends for that... and sit tight in the meanwhile.

    Re: What can you do with.

    its that center lower grill that'll kill you on cost.

    i wouldn't recommend the clint mod if you don't have a phatty IC to stuff back there... might look kinda bland. not to mention i hacked my bumper to clint status because it's the only way my IC/pipes would fit LOL

    Also on the S4 grills.. I don't think our fog lights will match up correctly with the S4 grills... I think custom would be the only way to go for the Clint Mod..

    I like the way your lip looks do you have more pictures ? Which site did you buy it from ? Also was it pretty much a bolt on and sits flush with the bumper?

    Re: What can you do with.

    I got it straight from the vizage distribution factory about 10 miles from my place.
    it fits over the stock bumper, so the fitment is no good unless you do some work, like cutting or even molding the lip to the stock bumper.
    otherwise if you just want to slide it over stock, its gonna stick out at the seams.
    I dont mind it though.

    Re: What can you do with.

    Another fairly inexpensive thing you do to the stock non-USP front is to add the JEDesign fog light grill inserts. I had them on my car in its previous iteration. They can be a pain to find though (they pop up on ebay from time to time).

    FWIW, the second pic after Clint's car is PS'd. AFAIK no one as gone as far as to create/fab up custom grilles for that. It could be done with a few extra grilles, some epoxy, plastidip, and patience.

    On a more serious note, does anyone make an after market front lip that just bolts on and replaces the bottom unpainted lower half, one that is less than$250?
