Here's come pics with the tint. I went with the MD legal limit (35%) so I won't get hassled by the local pd. I've been putting off taking it into the body shop to get the bumper and rear lip fixed until I get a daily driver.

I've been putting off taking it into the body shop to get the bumper and rear lip fixed until I get a daily driver.

Whats wrong with them? I wrote a how to on how to fix plastic bumper's and other plastic pieces if you need any tips on how to do it yourself. I have fixed everything from cracks to holes the size of a tennis ball in my bumper. So let me know if you want some help with that.

You should powdercoat your wheels bronze. Would look a lot better with the sand mica IMO

They called it professional tint, I think it's charcoal or something. It came out real well.

Hmm are you any good at photoshop? I would like to see it, I've seen bronze on sand mica before and I wasn't that impressed. If two of the wheels hadn't been curbed when I got them, I would have stuck with the original 03 finish.

I rear ended a honda a while ago and the bodyshop didn't pull out the left side (why the hood isn't flush with the headlight on the driver side) and then my rear side got pushed in, my real lip cracked and my front lip scraped when I went off the road. Added to that, the plastic support piece for the bumper fitment under the headlight is sitting in my basement too

Plan on getting side markers for the bumper or getting those spots patched? Also the fitment looks like crap btw.

I've taken the bumper off soo many damn times I just leave it. I don't have the bumper support either...but eventually I'm gonna take that one off and get a MSP front bumper, and might turbo it again. Who knows?

Question on having the P5/MSP/MP3 bumper on a sedan. With having the bumper does it look "goofy" from a side angle? What I mean is, does the bumper hang lower than the side etc? Most I have seen have had side skirts...So I assume CantCMe could answer this question? If I could find the sedan lip cheap I wouldn't worry about it, but I know thats a very weak probability.

Doesn't look goofy to me, but yeah it does hang a little lower than the sides. I have the side skirts, I just haven't had them painted and installed yet. It will look better once I do that.

When you have everything but the back, the ass looks so high!


...I got a WW rear lip fs btw.

 

[CantCMe]

I had the rear lip also but sold it...I might get another one if I don't get another ride.
