I cut the bumper. Because my car is black it looks pretty good the way it is. I'm not sure if its worth spending that amount of money for mtech rear bumper. If my car wasn't black I would definitely get mtech rear bumper

Coming soon M-Tech front bumper. Test fitted this bumper yesterday and I thought it was pretty much spot on. So now off to the paint shop.
