Looking good, Ill be sure to have some new pics by this summer after I get the chin spoiler installed as well as the fog lights. I say go with the Stainless steel bumper inserts since you have the chrome rims.

Do you have the SS vinyl inserts or the actual SS? Because the vinyl are $25 and the other are $60. Not sure if I can see myself giving out $60 for a set of inserts lol

On my 95 v6 I had brushed aluminum-look vinyl inserts, and they looked great on that car, matched my brushed aluminum fuel door and all. However, a year later they were starting to peel and didn't look as good as when I got them.
For my 03GT I got the SS inserts to match the rims and exhaust, and two years later they look new still. Only problem I ever run into is when waxing, just keep the wax out of the crevices (or use a product like turtle wax ice) like you would anywhere else, or it will cake up like hell.
I do not think that 'ss vinyl' would really look like a perfect mirror like the SS ones do... either way they add a nice contrast and are different than everyone else with black inserts, which look good, but you have shiny rims, and need shiny inserts!

Well, I can speak through experience on this.. sort of

SWEET dude...and I'm not just saying that because we have the exact same car *LOL* I'm looking at yours to see how my black shorty antenna is gonna look, I'm so hyped, get that 8 foot long whipper off there *L*
I have the black bumper inserts, I'd rather have those than SS, but then again, I'm thinking polished fuel door, so I dunno if now I need to go with the black fuel door to match (I like the polished one better, and I've seen it on a torch red, it looks SICK)
EDIT: AND, I HAVE to get a chin spoiler, that's all there is to it *L*
Anyway, sweet car man, beautiful pics!!

. Yeah thats the 14" antenna, I like that one because it ends up being even with the roof line but since you have a vert the 8" or 14" will do
