G Nepal, thanks. I still need some tint, but then aesthetic mods are done. I think sways are in my future, but a drop and bigger rims just won't work for what I want to use the car for. The G is my other 4x4, so I don't mind the wheel gap or stock rims. Of coarse it will look better with a drop and larger rims, but I don't think it's required to pull off the IPL bumper. I like the look a lot better than when it was stock. Boss tan, so what do you think? I think as long as you have the side skirts or splash guards the car still flows well, although the splash guards are hard to make out on the pics.

My thoughts exactly. I only have the splash guards, but they make a huge difference in the flow of the car with the aero bumper.

I like the ipl bumper with a drop, but our cars look horrible with that big wheel gap and the ipl bumper. 18 inch rims make it look worse, the ipl bumper gives it the look that is much higher from the ground without a drop.

the ipl bumper looks stunning! for those of you who have done this bumper conversion, was there any other hardware needed or was it a direct fit?

I would't get the side skirts, they'd look like wings at this height! I do like the rear aero bumper, but I like the OE one as well, and there's no killer deal to get it. If somebody tags my rear bumper, I would get the aero instead. Lookin' good Himalaya.

Depending on your model year, you may need the fog light conversion kit. It is just the plastic mesh inserts with the holes for the fog lamps. This is only for 2011+ model years, and only if the seller only sells the anniversary aero bumper. Otherwise, if you had a model older than 2011, you could either opt to get the anniversary aero bumper, which does not have fog lamp holes in the inserts, or you could get the "IPL" bumper, with the fog light holes, and buy the fog lamp assembly and slim washer tank.
