Not feeling the rims too much. The body work looks great. But why did you mold the front bumper? What if you needed to change the headlights or what if you decided to turbo and needed to install a fmic? Molding things that aren't meant to be molded is just asking for trouble, hitting a dip or something the wrong way and it's gonna be crack city.

your the first one to notice, ha ha, i left school and didnt notice it until i got home but it looks like someone pulled in and hit it and left, but its fixed already! lol

and on the rims, im going for more the "show car" look lol, and noone in town has ne thing close to them lol

but thanks for the comments everyone, im hopin the paint comes in very soon

Edit: Chan i molded the front cause when it got put on there was a gap between the bumper and the fender, so the guys just molded it to make it look nicer, same with the rear, there was a gap there also!

Well said... Molding the front end is ASKING for problems man... I would definately reconsider.... if anything ever happens you cannot remove the front end and chances are (since you like the blinf factor) that you will get/want projectors.... and that isn't possible with your set up now... reconsider.... the back in shouldn't be a big deal.... side skirts won't be unless u need to remove your fenders
i think it will be a definate contender...and those rims will definatly turn heads.

its not competely done cause all the door jams and under the hood and hatch need done, it needs wet sanded and cleared again, and buffed out, but for now it ORANGE ha ha ha, hope you guys like it!
im confused you refer to it as primered again, but is that orange primer? and if so, why did you primer it grey?

whered you paint it at?
so far looks great, I wanna see it done it'll be awesome

how much did you pay for the paint job ???
grey primer... orange primer.... ??
lol no no no its painted, but it was primered, sorry for the confusion lol
but all together it cost about $500 cause i got a guy at school doing it for me
dammmm !
you're abusing the poor guy

biggrin.gif keep doing it
Looking good. I must say I like the looks of a molded bumper on both front and rear!

I like the color, i think you need some dark rims with a nice lip to finish it all out, if you want to keep it blingin go with like 18s or 19s...but the rims now gotta go...Id also say black out your rear lights some...All and all i really like the color...Im excited to see it finished. Looks awesome with that dark tint.

edit: please tell me that your getting new mesh...

lol well the story on that is...it came with that mesh and when i put the bumper on, the reinforcement bar had to stay, meaning the mesh couldnt fit right, so i chopped it up, but i wanna try to fix it some way to make it look good but i dont wanna scratch the paint. And when i figure that out i was thinkin of painting it black (along with the rear pieces)

This is what happens when you mold a front bumper.

like that?!?!?! lol
when i was at school someone pulled in and hit me and left.but its fixed now so ill have to wait and see, but the only reason its molded is cause the kit didnt match up with the car and it wasnt going to, so it got molded to make it look better
looks hot. not really my style, but that really looks good. keep it up.
