yeah they are the same. if you want a GT bumper, just cut the 3 fog light lines out on each side and youve got one for free!

um i'm pretty sure he'd be talking about the rear bumper for his exhaust...

but i'd go with the Valentine, you can always cut the V6 bumper, i've seen it done and it'd actually pretty good looking...

the reason i wanted the gt bumper is because i have a big chip of paint on one side from some jack *** who hit me in a parking lot and drove off

and of course the exhaust reason

lol...i still dont understand why people need radar detectors...maybe if you just obeyed the speed limit!

plus alot of police forces use a laser gun now...and there are not really any good detectors for that

radar detectors are useless against laser. once you are hit, the cops already know how fast you were going.

another vote for the V1. There were so many Damn CHP's out tonight i would have for sure gotten a ticket on my drive home from school if i hadn't had the trusty V1.

On a sidenote any of you Cali guys notice An increased CHP presence in the past couple weeks? seems like i'm seeing alot more of them lately

Thing with the laser is, yeah you're screwed if they hit you, but they have to physically aim the gun, there aren't any car mounted Lasers yet. that means lasers are 99% of the time accompanied by old fashioned radar, which the V1 wil still detect WAY in advance.
