correct^
too much bondo will crack, if there was already a crack in the lip it should have been heated and new urethane/plastic been melted in
then a little bit of bondo/body filler over that just to smooth it out
thats how i learned how to do it in my paint shop class anyways, im sure there are different methods

yea no problem
not too many body shops do a good job anymore for some reason
body filler is good stuff to use, i used it on my front bumper to fill the little divets for the license plate and u cant even tell they were ever there
most places just use too much though, did the shop that painted that do the bondo work too?

just to paint the lip? dam, that sounds expensive to me lol
paint=25 max (1/2 pint)
clear=another 30
bondo used=maybe 10 bucks
primer= 15
total minus labor would be 80 bucks, so they charged 90 bucks for labor
i guess thats not too bad

Damn, that sucks, even though there isn't any snow here that is a good reason to just get the MP3 splitter as it won't get scratched or broken.
from what ive heard around here in dallas from alot of enthusiasts is that my price was uber cheap.
alot of guys got their parts painted for atleast 200-250..
yea or get the mazdaspeed front lip with the jdp splitter

^^^oh yea!!!
LOL, even with the risks, I'm still gonna get a JDP splitter, it'll probably be a hole inch off the ground.
Get the urethane version!
they are oem replacement shocks
For more? Pfh (piss)
Oh well yeah if you get Alberts JDP, then do it to it
