What have you done to your P5 today?

[McBadass]

not a whole lot of options on our bumpers, sorry

Only thing i suggest is painting the rear valance

thats the thing from the start that i knew i didnt like about mp5 tho..... maybe ill make a custom one from sheet metal when i get back to CO

The only aftermarket rear bumper I've ever liked is the Mintblue one but it only looks good with the whole kit. Looks like VIS is making a replica of it here.

Evade has this kit on his P5 as well as a couple other Hawaii guys. Look through the pics in this thread.

Painted the spoiler today. I have to say that I am very very satisfied with the results. I made a little stand to which the spoiler could attach and hammered it into the ground. I carefully sanded the spoiler, cleaned it with a cloth, couple coats of filler primer, wetsand with 1000 grit, 3-4 color coats, wetsand with 1000 grit, 2 coats of clear. The spoiler looks amazing. I took a pic but it was inside and doesn't do it justice. It's getting polished and waxed tomorrow and then installed. I'll have pics tomorrow. It was really all worth the extra work. The second pic shows it after primer, before first wetsand.

fish, that looks like a lot of work for a spoiler, congrats, I'm sure it looks better than the rest of the car

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Lol thanks I think it probably will. I cannot wait to put it on tomorrow and see how it looks.

Nice...

Beautiful job on the spoiler dude.

 

[Rockin03mp5]

nice job fish... but you could have just given it to me.

I put the wing on today!! The paint is not a perfect match to the original paint but it's really not that noticeable. I'll eventually take it to get professionally sprayed. You really can't tell the paint difference in the pics but it's there. I love the look personally. Now to paint the rear valence or not to paint the rear valence?

 

[justanothermp5]

im prob the only guy who will say this on here

but i really do not like the way that looks at all, sorry
i would like a spoiler similar to the MS3's but the stock p5 spoiler looks good already i think

 

[mx-p5]

Not the only guy, i'm not a huge fan.

I do like more of a duckbill spoiler.

And, what i did with mien? Jeg helped me install the VTCS'less intake mani with a mild P&P(just enough to remove the VTCS lips)

Also, went to find out why my rear end is clunking, turns out i broke the driver's side rear AWR endlink....

So, removed the adjuster and have the eyes still bolted up for now.

 

[Rockin03mp5]

i think it looks good fishy! the stock spoiler points too far down. the autox style is nice... but no 3rd brake light.

 

[HKPRO5]

Yea i dont like how the stock one points down...that one looks good!

 

[Breeegz]

I personally wouldn't put it on my car, it's not my style, but it looks good on yours. Gives you a nice aggressive look.
