I've been working on cars a long time now and let me say, this damned STi bumper was a huge fuckin' pain. I'm used to spending 5mins, or so, to take off a bumper. Not here. There were little plastic pop-its in some of the worst friggin' places. Then add the fact that they're fairly brittle/breakable and my fun meter is just fuckin' pegged. I'm considering doing a front mount in the future, maybe I should just leave the damned thing off until then.
