New Clean Look

[MIK3]

This only took me like 30 mins, and it looks so much nicer. What do you guys think? Those holes were simply annoying...

From this...


To this...

[EvilPenciler]

whoa , thats nice howd you do it?

[MIK3]

Some JB Weld...filled in the holes with that. I let it dry. Than sanded it down to the level of the rest of the bumper, and then I finished w/ spray paint and clear coat. I did this the same day I recoated and reclearcoated my bumpers.

That looks really good, I used fiberglass to fill the holes and some damage, but your idea is alot easier for the plate holes at least.

[MIK3]

Yeah. It took me a while to figure out what to use, I was thinking about caulk, but then ditched that idea because I didn't think the paint would stick to good to it.

Looks great.

You need to straighten out the gaps between the headlight covers and the hood/fender, and the gaps between the sidemarkers and the headlight trim. I only say that because I know you're just as anal about cars as I am.

[MIK3]

That I do. But I haven't found the time to get all up into that bumper and figure out which places are saggin. But don't worry, it shall be accomplished because I am that anal about my car, haha.

[MrBen]

That middle sag can be fixed by loosening some screws on the grille. Now it looks to me like your passenger headlight cover/trim sticks out also, which can easily be adjusted... just dismantle everything and be anal about it when reassembling.

Nice 3g... reminds me of mine. Except your hood doesn't have a little dent in it (will be fixed on mine this summer)

The panels on my car are all jacked up too. It bugs the shit out of me. Hopefully, I can them all lined backed up. MIK3, that bumper looks good. I wish the body shop would have actually filled the holes on my bumper instead of sticking big ass plugs in them.

Don't the cops in your town pull you over for no front plate? I know that where I live, that's one of the main things that people get pulled over for. The bumper looks really clean, though.

[sccrsteve5]

probly not any problems at all with the cops without the license up front. in NM u don't need one and i think we are pretty close in regulations...not positive though


that an amber bulb in the bumper lenses? how do they look?

[skull1441]

wow.. pluggin those holes actually made big difference GJ

[i.c.]

sweet i got a plate on my front so i don't need to fill them in...but it looks sweet.

[SteveDX89]

Haha. All you guys that need plates on the front suck.

[i.c.]

i don't need plates on the front...i have a front plate with the H on it

[MIK3]

Yeup. No front license plates required for the state of Arizona. Very nice huh? As for the bulbs, they sure are amber. And it looks so much more cleaner in the day time. When florescent lights in my garage shine on the bumper, it looks hella clean. Way better than clear bulbs w/ orange reflectors in. At night, when I turn left or right, it's a lot more brighter as well. Did that mod about a month or 2 ago.

[sccrsteve5]

very nice job

[lightbulblxi]

looks good, its one of those things where its not really noticable, unless its ur car.
