[s-cars] Re: Pickup Squishes Ms Piggys Snout

Personally, I don't think the LLTEK valence enhances the looks at all. If you need a new bumper and someone else's insurance is going to pay for it, my preference would be the Euro bumper package from Europrice - unless you have a FMIC which I unerstand may be a little tight fit.

> Exactly -- my driveway is steep at the bottom and the LLTek will scrape, unless you hit it at the correct angle. But then, the original bumper cover used to scrape, too. You'll want to avoid pulling up too close to concrete parking(lot) blocks. Of course, I had the same issue, before the LLTek install. It was the primary reason the original cover was so shagged up. The best argument in favor of the LLTek is that it just looks so right.

It does not hang lower but since it squares off the front that means it protrudes farther forward than the original.... which means that depending on the roads you normally drive (for example an incline driveway could cause scraping with a lowered suspension).
