It doesn't look bad. I would probably ditch the sticker though.

ah... that's who he sold it to. i was interested too, but alas, i was too late.

now looking at it, it looks better on a dark-colored car. would've contrasted too much on mine.

fitment sucks...not a fan of the lips that rest on the lower part the of the bumper it will probably scratch and scuff the paint under that spot from all the vibration.
