New C7 Premiere bumper installed. The Extreme Dimensions bumper we had on the car had cracked (again), and was all around just not great quality (with a lot of filler, modifications, etc that just weren't holding up well)

Very nice. I do have a question. With the wide body rear did you guy have to relocate the gas cap? I'm looking at ordering the front and rear wide fender once I get my car back. But I can't seem to find any info about do or don't have to move the gas cap on top or keep it on the side.

We can't relocate it because of the tonnau on the spyder. However, all of the other widebody's I have seen, have the gas cap relocated to the top of the quarter panel.

i liked the ED look better, but i totally understand. FG, imho, just cannot compete with urethane for durability.

this bumper is fiberglass. And it had nothing to do with durability of the ED bumper. The quality was TERRIBLE. When we got it, it stuck out over a foot on either side of the fenders, the top didn't line up, headlight and turn signal area was just unworkable. So, we tossed the one bumper, and the one on the spyder was converted to use 99 headlights since the original fitment for 94-98 was just unacceptable. And even after all of that work, it was still just not acceptable.

This bumper fits beautifully, needed VERY minimal tweaking, and it's all around much better quality. It was really a no brainer. I loved the look of the ED bumper, but it was just too crappy of a product to start with. I really love the way this bumper looks on the car as well, it compliments the widebody vented fenders nicely. I think the Novara sideskirts would really set it off nicely, but thats just not going to happen. Maybe if I were planning on keeping the car, but, it's going up for sale shortly, so, stock sideskirts it is.
