RE: Lets do the exterior!

Next was the rear bumper

Had to remove the bracket plate that bolts to the back and switch it from the stock bumper bracket



Comparison Left-Stock Right-Mtech

Stock bracket installed on mtech

Ready to be installed but first i wanted to paint my faded bottom trim



And heat shrink the parking light connectors for protection as this kit deletes it


Rear bumper installed

KoKoSe7eN YOU ARE MY HERO.

Holy shit dude, you've done the work of a professional in your driveway. Just speechless, keep up the good work.

I'm heading up to SJ on the 19th to see one of my friends, let me know if I can see the car!

Now the wheels need a 5-7mm spacer to fill wheel wells better, shame all the little grommets cost nearly the price of a kit.

nice work on installing the Mtech 2 man. Looks pro man.

I wanted to scold you for how dirty the car was in post 240, but then I saw your tires and it seems you've been driving the hell out of it.
So big thumbs up/ Im still super jelly of your skills and attention to detail.

All I can say is that I need a new job. Lol
You make me hate myself.
Amazing build. Looks like you got yourself a brand new car.
