- Tue Sep 22, 2015 6:36 pm #356168 Well, after picking this up for $20, giving it a half-assed painjob with non-color matched paint (Rustoleum gloss white paint+primer), and fitting it on the car, I think it came out pretty darn good.The fitment isn't the best, by any means, but I can live with it. I'll be making little adjustments to get it to fit better. I'll be getting a First Molding Rep front lip in the not too distant future.

Previous owner stitched up the crack with some wire. This will be covered by the lip anyways, so I just left it.

After a quick wash:

Thanks man :D needs to be tweaked a bit. your sedan is lookin real nice nowadays!


:D , how are those spoon mirrors? I like how they look, but I bought a pair from ebay and when I put them on I couldn't adjust the mirror to see properly plus they leave a hole inside your car where the mirror adjustor thing is.
