Do you have any pictures of your fenders after they were rolled and pulled, before you installed your fender flares, so that I can get a better idea of the work required.

Do you feel that your bumper latches hold well enough?

Ya they hold it really well

I've got to admit, the car has come a long way and I'm really liking it! Have to say that I like that color you chose for the wheels too! The one thing though that sticks out to me is...you guessed it...those bumper latches. Too bad you can't just swap them out easy with the AAC kit. Maybe paint them the body color like the bumper lights?

 

[rar40941]

I love the bumper latches it has saved my bumper so many times lol. I would rather have the latches cause if I had the AAC kit my bumper would have gotten mest up a long time ago lol

 

[Jezis]

They're probably my favorite thing about your front end. Theyre gangster as f..k

 

[rar40941]

I would have to agree with u lol

They're very distracting to me. On your light colored car with light colored wheels, my eyes are directed straight to the latches. Maybe something a little more subtle, or not so dark

This! Even with the new wheel color the first thing my eyes are drawn to are the latches. Plus they take away that clean look. You did a pretty good job molding those flares to fit just right and then BAM, latches protruding out that take it all away. Again, my .02....just think they'd look better body colored. Not sure how well that would work though with taking the bumper on/off repeatedly.

 

[rar40941]

Ya I was thinking about taking off the latches and going to the thinner ones but idk how I will cover the holes maybe when I get the car repainted I will switch to those for a little cleaner look

 

[JDM_Pro5]

I can't edit for crap today so it looks bad, but you get the idea

 

[CTt3P5]

^^^Yes....so clean and so nice! But at the end of the day it is your car and your money so do whatcha like.

 

[JDM_Pro5]

^ Exactly. I know you need a quick release bumper. I've seen these, which would be less noticeable

 

[rar40941]

Damn it does look clean. I was think about switching those ones

Those suck donkey dick. They'll sag after just a few months and In Cali I'm sure it would be much worse. Current ones arnt much better but at least you can get 10 months out of them before they start cracking and sagging.
