Project Facelift

[Jean]

I like the idea on taking the material off the end of the bumper, rather than chopping a section out of the middle, gotta see if that's any easier to do..

It will be easier, but the only drawback is that you won't have the factory end at the end of the bumper. That's what I plan to work on this off-season.

Rear bumper is mounted.

The sides aren't mounted to the body yet, but this gives pretty much the finished picture of how it looks mounted. I've got to do some paint repair on the side trim parts, so they aren't on yet, and I need to raise the driver's side corner up just a hair, but it's

ON THE GOD DAMN MOTHERFUCKING CAR.

whats with the early tails?

[Jand3rson]

SHIT!!!111!1!!11!

BMA must have sent me the wrong tails. Damn that bastard Patrick, motherfucker can't get anything right.

[loonibab325i]

looks great man!! you are almost done!!!!!

Looks good, get that trim back on. Painting that rear section with gloss black will look alot better.

It's painted satin black currently, I haven't decided yet if I want to go gloss on it. And if I do, it will just be the upper half that gets gloss, and the lower will be left satin, like they are stock.

Satin looks like doo doo. Paint the entire thing gloss and get some side skirts to match the front lip.

I don't want the entire thing gloss. Like I said, it will only be the top half. More gloss = more chips. Leaving the lower part satin will help hide them a bit more when they occur.

And I do plan to get sideskirts, just not sure which ones yet.

[backtrail69]

I would definitely do the half satin and half gloss. Looks great on black.

[Jean]

About damn time !!! lol

[MR 325]

What kind of bodykit is that?

[StereoInstaller1]

Josh, you should lower those rear fender arches.

+1. gloss doesnt mean more chips... i have my entire lower part painted gloss finish along with my front valence which is detextured and painted gloss body color, rock chips are no more present than before...
