I like the front. The back doesn't seem to fit the car though, it looks out of place. Also, please lower your car.

I don't like your choice of kits. They do not seem to flow together to well. The front lip looks kind of nice though. If I were you I would have gone with that front lip, 97-99 side skirts, 97-99 rear bumper, and a turbo wing. I went to Earl Sheib when I first got my 96 GS and I told them to take that stock wing off and fill the holes before repainting the whole car.

errr...ummm.....ehhh...ummm. hmmmmm

no offense but it DOES look like you just blindly picked a whole bunch of very different kit peices and put them on. my vote? return it back to stock minus the headlights, drop it..call it a day. there are FAR too many flat spots and edges on that car. look at any eclipse and youll see flat just does not flow.

but hey, its your car, do with it what you will. but you did ask for opinions..and to be honest..i vote 5 of 5 emoji emoji emoji emoji emoji

Luke, I am your bumper!

EDIT: I love the color! I've said this before in other posts, I'll say it again: It's your car, if it makes YOU happy then go with it.

Everybody is partial to their own thing, some go to make the car unique, which you did very well (I noticed a bend/curl in the front bumper below the passenger side headlight), some like me prefer stock.

Yeah, I'd tell you to lower your car also, but I won't because I have not either.

HOLY SHIT!!!!1

That is the most fuckered up rear bumper ever. What a disgrace to the sexy ass of a 98+ Eclipse.

Horrible. Just friken horrible.

Burn it like you said. Save yourself the trouble of dealing with assholes like me who'll make fun of your car.

I like the rest though emoji

I'd ditch the rear bumper, drop it, put on a turbo spoiler and call it a day. I really like the color, it's very nice.

You'll definitely be able to hit the 10's with that kit... if not, you might need some more underglow sticks.
