My bumper fix (thanks again for the help)
What was going on was, in my Type A, obsessive compulsive, perfection seeking, freak of a mind (pretty much like all you guys 
), I wanted to fix my front bumper. When I bought the car, it had a front license plate on it, and when I took of the plate, there were four ugly holes in the bumper. Two of the holes were big enough to get bumper plugs for, which helped, but still looked like this:
I went to a couple body shops that said that they would either not do it, or that it would cost too much to be worth it. I really wanted to keep the stock front bumper and mount the TTE front lip on it, but I just hated those damn holes. Anyway, via talgrl626, I was able to find a stock front bumper from a mil. silver '01 GS, which was taken off after one days use to be replaced by the RMM kit. To make a long story short, I got a great deal on the bumper, installed it today in the garage, and here is my finished product:
Thanks again to all the members here at CL. This forum is invaluable and in this case, helped me obtain the bumper, and also helped provide me with information to change bumpers myself.

The have to already be hosted somewhere already, and then you can use the 'IMG' button above to show the photos. I basically uploaded them to my private gallery here on CL, then linked to them inside the text, as opposed to uploading them along with my post... Does that make any sense?
