Not sure where I got it but, they are still available.

Original front bumper was suffering from serious urban assault / Twisted Sisters road rash and a dime size chunk of plastic was missing on lower part of bumper that was partially hidden by a glob of touch up paint and a generic baysonr lower lip. I've had the car almost 5 years now and normally that's about when I get the urge to trade up but, decided to do a 2.0 on the exterior to update the look, put some more miles on the ODO and wear out the tires a few more times!

The '17 fog light bezel is no longer a perfectly round hole so I guess light fixtures don't stand out like before. They are in there ...OLM combo fog and DRL LED.

Me, too. At least he seems to have cleared that one. I used to hear that gruesome sound regularly, but I finally learned to stop WAY back from the concrete curb, and I mean so I can walk between it and the car. Trust me, your butt won't stick out -- there's still lots of room behind the car. Remember how teensy our cars really are!

Fixed my OBDII port today. Easy fix once you get the OBDII plug out to a place where you can work on it. (unless you're a contortionist with perfect eyesight and patience) Pulled it out thru the opening where the climate controls were mounted. After it was repaired, I hooked up a 3 foot, low profile OBDII extension cable routed over to the passenger side so I don't have to mess with the OEM connection again.

Would this mean your effective offset is 27?

very curious to see how this works out for you. I've had my eye on this HU for quite some time. Do all of the steering wheel controls work?
