wow I fixed my own bumper - how's it look?

Here, if you go to this page, you will see some pictures of the car when I first bought it - note the crusty/dirty rims and broken bumper.

Well, I recently moved to South Dakota in a town of 600 people (I have the only Mitsubishi and Eagle in town, also can say I own the fastest car in town, too) I'm bored out of my skull so I play with my cars alot. I initially thought it was a bad idea, but I attempted to fix my own bumper, cheaply polish my rim and make the sideskirts match the car instead of being so faded. So check it out and tell me what you think. And don't mind the missing door cap and busted up fender (door cap is in the mail, and my little brother sprung my passenger door, so I'm looking for a new fender)

Looks very nice, but its sort of hard to tell how the color looks by those pictures. The bumper is a big improvement though.

Good Work

Hey thanks guys! I think it's pretty good considering I did it with a fiberglass repair kit and spray paint

heheh.. I did this. Curbs suck!

But I used a left over 500 grit piece of sandpaper for my DA and a can of spraypaint to do this! Looks a hell of a lot better, and there is NO photoshop touch ups on it. Full paint and body work is going underway this winter!

Dang, that looks really good. I kind of wish I would have just done the whole bumper now. Awesome job, though!
