I love the rear. I dont like the holes in the bottom of the new IX bumper, looks like a Gialla bumper, but I hate them less than the big split grill on the VIII. I was thinking of possibly doing this as well if I dont go CWest. But that's so far down the road. I want to spend my money on my motor first.

the IX front bumper is direct replacement without having to remove the crash beam. The only modification you will need is gettign the grills/mesh screens on the IX bumper. Some area is more of DIY. Other than that, its pretty straight forward.

Looks good. Do you have that oil cooler scoop that directs flow to it, or did you leave it off?
