yea not quite finished. it aint rough its completly smooth. just need to saw off a small part sticking out next to the front wheel.
a good wet sanding and paint will do it. but im too lazy lol. going to do it during the christmas break. since its snowing here it wont be on the car so gonna be easy. side modings probably gonna go off at the end of winter. again.. im too lazy lol...and its getting cold.

hah naw man i got mine from discospeed..
I talked to him about that lip as well... lol I've got his old hood & trunk. Another purchase from him is coming this winter...
I recently sourced a slightly damaged 03.5 lip as well. It's titanium with some moderate damage. Going to send $$ for it next week and start to decide what I'm going to do with it. After I work on some of the rough areas, I'm thinking about wrapping it in vinyl... I should probably just paint match it, tho (and is likely what I'll do). haha

not texture-wise rough, appearance-wise rough...doesnt really matter how smooth it is when its wavy as hell
i would work that center and left section down some with 80 grit till its actually even, the right sight (drivers) looks okay from the pics

i know what ya mean. but it aint wavy loool ill try to take a clearer picture its just the lighting or something with my bad cam giving that impression.
It's not the camera making it look like there's cellulite. The lighting isn't being kind, and under most lighting conditions I'm sure it won't be noticable, but you can't say it isn't wavy.
