    Guess your could say it almost looks so homely it is almost cute....
    Kinda reminds me of an orange goldfish opening its mouth to eat and when I look at it!!:cool:
    But still....the bottom flat thinggy....and the black insert...just makes me wonder what they were thinking....maybe the bumper strip should be red...like a tounge....then add some teeth...lol...must be too tired...was up all night... But the point is, when a design gets folks to contemplate spending $2000 on a new car ($1000 bumper plus about $1000 shipping, paint, prep, etc) to correct a "cosmetic flaw", one must say.... What were they smoking when they approved the design.....remember, the Aztec was a reliable car/SUV, but died due to horrific looks......
    Sure I see how BMW is trying to make the grill openings stand out, like a BMW....but think they could have done it a bit more subtlely....

    I'm looking at photos of the Fiesta RS & Focus RS...I see that Auto Express names the F56 as Car of the Year for 2014...

    Must do BLACK stripes.....if you are gonna go funny...play up the school bus look in a funny way....
    IMO get s plate as fast as you can...
    In NH, vanity plates were discontinued due to a recent court case about what constitutes a "offensive" plate....guy took state to court over a "pigs-lie" or "cops-lie" plate....said it was not offensive but a fact...lol...then sued...so till the state finds a better way to determine if a plate is offensive, no vanity plates...
