you probably need about a gallon, and should cost no more than $200 with the reducer to spray it.
quick question, when you put the msp bumper on, you had to buy the bumper rienforcement?? also was the rienforcement easy to put on (like a couple bolts) or do you have to weld, cut, etc...??? was looking to get a p5 bumper & dgm lip

easy to put on. i got the bumper reinforcement from ebay..40.00 shipped.mickeyreategui said:
umm. yes though, very easy. no welds same exact setup w/ bolts and mounting places. just different bar.
200.00..hmmm

yeah most likely. we'll see what's up. the exhaust just got done. i've get to take pictures/video of this. aside from that, i just gotta get tags/insurance on the car and i can drive it...but..that's a butload of money at this point for me...we'll see. car starts everytime. i just wanna go driving for a day to break in the motor.D-rock240 said:$40? You suck! And I thought I got a good deal on mine
