I did some installing today...

**Chefsp0t** · 5-30-08, 0:43

First off I'm sorry that the car's so dirty. I was planning on washing it but things took longer than expected. Also, I KNOW that the paint on my front bumper has seen better days...

I can't afford a whole paint job right now so it will have to work.

I finished the clear coat on my JDM sides and lip and installed them today. They're not perfect but they look pretty good. I need to touch up some areas that I scratched during the installation. I'll have them professionally painted and fitted when the car's repainted.

The finished product after a few clear coats and some wet sanding

My bumper removed

The front lip

I spaced the lip off the bumper about a half an inch. It lined up better that way since the lip is made for the JDM bumper which is a different shape than the American version.

And it took me so long to get the bumper back on that the sun went down. I'll get some daylight pictures soon!

I was going to say the same thing

There weren't enough hours in my day today. I spent all morning prepping the pieces then all afternoon and into the night removing the bumper, buying hardware, installing the pieces, and putting everything back together again. I wanted to wash the car but it didn't happen.

But you had enough time to take pictures?

**Chefsp0t** · 5-30-08, 0:59

Lol, it only takes a second to snap a picture. I'll get some good pictures as soon as I get it washed.
