"Patches" Update :)

A lip on the front bumper will make it flow well with the rest of the car.

We're getting there. The budget does not currently allow for a lip, but it will end up with one. The bottom of the bumper is just so much higher than the rest of the kit that it looks kind of silly. I'm keeping my bumper though. I argued quite a bit with the hubby about it, and finally won, so it's staying.

Your car came out really nice. Bye the way my bumper came the other day and it has that stupid triangle indent, I was so bumed about it.

Why? You got an OEM front bumper and not a cheap aftermarket one. Throw a mitsu symbol in there and smile.

I think my cheap aftermarket bumper looks a damn sight better than what was up there

Darn right.

At first I was like yuck color... But after staring at it for awhile I like it. It just kind of draws you to it, nice move

I would make the bumper match the car though

 

[ktgurl87]

Nope. Bumper will be black. I'm glad you all like it though.

You need to update your avatar now Ma'am.

 

[ktgurl87]

You are right. I do. No more ugly green bumper thing.

 

[wickedz]

why didnt you paint the door jams? I see BLUE

 

[ktgurl87]

Because I'm a lazy ass and I haven't done it yet.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Avatar looks much better.

 

[ktgurl87]

Thank You.

I gotta say KT, the car looks awsome..But I'm really thrown off by the bumper tho..Maybe you should tell the hubby to pull it off on the weekend and paint it to match..

 

[ktgurl87]

Well... the hubby is gone again. I almost kind of like it flat like it is. I dunno. But he won't be back for like a week and a half or so... so it's gonna stay as it is for a little bit.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Ha ha ha..That's kinda funny, it's just throwing me off is all..I like the pink, but think the bumper should be painted to match..I love the hood and the top the way it is just the bumper bothers me..

 

[ktgurl87]

I think the bumper would look funny pink.

Let me throw this out there... one idea we were looking at was painting the bumper black but the little "grill" thingy in the middle, painting it pink to match the car.

 

[JOLTY TacoMan]

It looks like it would be a little smoother if the pink continued from the quarter panel onto the bumper, but somehow leaving the rest of it black.
Just my .02

keep it primer and pimp around your local neighborhood in it with the windows down blaring horrid country music.

Looks better, however.

It would look 1000x better pink, it looks really "special" with the bumper staying black. Your bumpers should match, imo... Generally two-tones are bottom half one solid color, top half another. Front/rear bumpers should always have the same paint color, otherwise it looks like you got in a wreck and put a cheap bumper from a different color car on there.

 

[ktgurl87]

I painted my buuuuumper, and it looks awwwwwesome. -does a lil dance-

 

[DSMTyson]
