    To me that would annihilate all of the "clean and smooth" custom work you have done and overpower it so onlookers only noticed the bumper and not the car.

    Look at any non Cadillac with Dagmars on it and no matter what the vehicle you see bumper then you notice the car that the bumper is on. It seldom works as a real package with the rest of the car.

    Got to agree with MR 48. Works on very few Non-Caddys.
    Just too massive a bumper for a shoebox front end.
    Part of the purpose (At least in my mind) of customizing is to make the car look cleaner. Not to clutter it up with big Boobies...... Just my 2 cents.
