Somebody made the same comment on a different site. His reply was he tried to get the chrome finish on fiberglass bumpers, but it was very difficult to get a good straight finish on the lightweight bumpers that looks good once chromed.

Only complaint from me is he cheaped out on the wheels. The original concept wheels made the car.

The sound of the turbo spooling up is awesome. Too bad turbos make for such a piping mess under the hood.
