Well. Let my mom drive my car for a day. A dog ran out in front of her. It was either the dog or my car getting hurt. She chose my car. Car+ditch=haha, a new front bumper. I put it on yesterday. It went on better than the first and didnt buckle under the lights. Oh and there's a pic with some 10000k hid's. And a pic parked by a curb that makes my car look bagged. I wish.

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:17 AM
At least it's not white. So i'll deal.

kwhauck
08-14-2009, 12:18 AM

rattle can, is not the type of different i would be proud of......

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:18 AM
Everyone always told me to paint afterwards because it'll get scratched while puttin it on. But not really.

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:19 AM
Well dude it's painted and you can't even tell a difference up close. So it's workin out pretty good.

I dont think the whole car is rattle canned. Or is it?

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:21 AM
Noo. The whole car is painted professionally. Just this bumper is rattle canned. lol

looks like the bumper matches well

StoopidAlero

Thats what I thought. I saw this car somewhere online not too long ago. The color is just a bit too pastel for me, but I like it. And hey man, screw it, if you gotta rattle can the front bumper until you can get it painted, so be it. Its better having a matched rattled front bumper than rollin around with a white bumper or no bumper at all. LOL. Thats what I had to do for like a month with my front and rear bumpers! And now neither of my bumpers are painted! Grr! Ready for my paint!

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:24 AM
Yea it matched pretty good. But it's still from a spray can so it's not really as glossy as the rest of the car. lol.

heineck
08-14-2009, 12:24 AM
yea it matches,

kwhauck
08-14-2009, 12:25 AM
sell your greddy turbo kit, then you can paint it.....

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:26 AM
Hmmm. Wonder where you saw it? lol. Makes me wanna go look. Yea i still wish i had tha kit. Not too many people have it and it's unique IMO. But its WAY better than the white. And plus my gf sharpied all over it so i definitely had to cover that up.

too many spokes IMO, i'm not a fan.......

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:40 AM
Ohh. I don't know if im feelin the Panther's. They wouldntreally look too good on my car IMO.

JoshGentry
08-14-2009, 12:42 AM
Im not really a fan of those kinda rims either but they are a pretty good price. I like rims that show off the brake calipers etc. like a five spoke rim.

everytime i see this car it makes me shake my head in amazment it really does
whoever is telling you that your going to scratch the bumper putting it on, is a complete dumbass, i do that all day long, built show cars installing painted pieces, so dont listen to someone that obvious doesnt have the experience, ask here and i`ll answer for your retarded friend

with the bumper off, why not clean up all the baby blue overspray, on the re bar, on the fender liners, make it look nice, heres some good advice for ya

all that rattle can crap your putting on has to come back off, when its time to paint, so i would have left it in the gel coat made it fit fixed what had to be fixed, and at least primed it, but you obviously must have just scuffed it, and rattle caned it to death=FAIL!!

if your unsure thats why im here ask away i`ll give you the correct i nfo you need, please just ask, instead of hacking your car away

JoshGentry

What do you mean shake your head in amazement? Is that a compliment or a cut down?

08-15-2009, 06:13 PM
cut down.

hes a professional journeyman... what your doing makes him cry.

JoshGentry
08-15-2009, 06:40 PM
Ok. Sorry. Thank you for the advice. But the bumper is fine and looks perfect. Trust me when I say that you can't even tell a difference in color or anything. I'll post pics when i get ahold of a camera. So i guess keep crying.

Yeah you should wait until you can get a good lookin 5-spoke. These have to be one hell of a deal to buy. :)

JoshGentry
08-15-2009, 07:37 PM
Well he wnts 350 for them now. Think that's a reasonable price? I'm thinkin the tires are hell though. And thats why he's lettin them go for so low. lulz.

Of all the spray can colors in all the world, you pick baby blue. I would NEVER drive a baby blue car.....and I'm a girl.

I agree with the rims, though, skip em.

You sir are DEFFINTIELY Mr. fail today! Just because I am PappaSmurf and the Smurfs are blue, does not mean that I am all about everything blue. LOL
Hint notice my STILL silver alero. For now at least until I can get the money to paint it blue, ROTFLMAO.

You want a closer pic? Because obviously you're to thick headed to believe me. If i was honest enough to say that it's from a spray can and it's not as glossy, don't you think i'd say that it didn't quite match at all?
