    Default Some progress...

    Well I don't have the money for all new bumpers or anything and mine were faded gray with shtty stickers all over them so I scraped them off and taped them up for paint. Flat black ftw! I plan on doing the trim/skirts Wed and I'll add them in, but for now here are the front and back bumpers. I did paint my wiper arms but forgot to take a picture.

    Before (Front)




    After (Front)






    Before (Back)




    After (Back)






    I've got a deal lined up in the next week to get new head lights since mine hold condensation. I'm also currently trying to get amber turns/corners from someone else. Right now I'm not trying to waste alot of money on the looks, just make it presentable.

    You know Bondo makes a trim dye, and it works really well. I have some and used it twice, and it really drings out the original colorog very good. My rear was almost white n top from fading, and after the dye it was a rich, deep black.

    Yea, I'm picking up some new headlights that night and hopefully I'm going to install them there LOL. Mine hold water and look like sht, but I want to atleast get the rims painted so they don't look so nasty.

    I used flat black, but I need new bumpers anyways, just can't afford them, this was strictly a budget cosmetic fix up. My front has a hole in it you can see the styrofoam through. I'm trying to get this d16z6 swap for cheap so all my extra is saving towards that. 65k on it out of an auto EX.

    You can see the hole here. V





    -Skinny, send me pictures! Lol, if you cut a better deal on them than what the other guy wants and are in good enough shape I'll get them too. But I need pictures of everything now! Haha.
