    Is that grill bigger than the others or is it just an optical illusion? It looks huge!

    I really like the C4 hybrid bumper but I want something that I don’t have to cut the stock bumper to mount. I want a full replacement. Anything out there that looks like that one without chopping?

    My only issue is I’m leasing it right now before I finance and I’m not sure if I would get fined when I take it in for oil changes and maintenance since I “modified” the vehicle. Never leased before so I’m not sure how they handle that
