don't get me wrong the amuse bumper is pretty nice. but honestly i think its a waste of money. your basicly paying for an 04 bumper with a lip molded on. they look to much a like. TS gets my vote for sure out of yoru choices.

well many have the TS and ive only seen it on one silverstone and although its a very nice bumper for some reason its not the same as if it were on a white or black car.

I really like the shape of the new amuse front bumper, and no one has it yet. Is it really $1200 USD I was thinking it would be around $1000 canadian, however if you are correct about the $1200US price tag, thats very hefty and the TS would be a better bang for the buck.

Why is it that no one likes the pre 04 bumper with a cf lip? I think it would compliment a cf trunk/cf hardtop/cf hood/cf rear diffuser extremely well!

The Amuse front bumper is $1044.68 plus about $130 for shipping from California. No one in the US has it yet that I know of. I have had it on order from Amuse for about 3-4 months now. It will not be easy to get and expect a big delay. As for it looking like the 04 bumper, that's a matter of opinion. The side vents are noticably larger and the lip portion is very different. The Amuse is more aggressive and comes with an undertray. When I finally get mine, I'll post pics.

Those lips only work with an 04 bumper.

its your money and you should decide

i go with the 04 front or the full amuze, they're pretty much the same design. But of course the full amuze is rare (for now) and is different from others who have 04 with lip X.
