Anyone else think that looks completely unimpressive?

While the front is nice, this is not an improvement over the stock look.

I'm still trying to figure out what the rear bumper is doing.

Just think, for $33k+, you get all this AND an additional 20hp.

Maybe the steps are there to get you high enough to clear the spoiler and scrape the ice off the back window.

That must be it, steps built in and the central chunk of the wing missing HAS to be for clearing that darned window!

That front is starting to look better. (A little better than SEMA, and MUCH better than the photoshops) But there is no reason or logic for the steps in the back bumper. Its not even something a ricer would do because it is not immitating anything. It just looks stupid.

Yes, they are snap-riveted on which, IMO makes it look cheap.

The whole car is free of exposed fasteners on the exterior.

And they go and put them at the most noticeable spots. Brilliant.

Yes, I think that the people @ Roush could have done better @ adding the louvers

Sorry, didn't mean to get so defensive. Nope, I'm still waiting for a new hard drive, right now I'm just "borrowing" one. As far as the "Steps" on the Back bumper...... :scratch:

no worries, I didn't take it as being defensive, I just wanted to clarify myself. I really don't understand the point of those "steps" either.
