Believe me folks, I want that really bad for too pricy. I am spending $800 to fix it. Now a conversion calls for at least $1,200 more! Out of my budget! In the future for sure. No doubt about it. Maybe on a worst accident.lol

Do the whole front end 2010 conversion!! lol..

Good thing I have 6mt.. I taught my girlfriend to drive manual when we went to Greece on a loaner (No way is she learning on my car... lol). That car was completely different than our clutch...

I'm sure it'll come in handy one time though.. knock wood

Good luck with it and post up pictures when you're done!

Thank you guys! She is gonna recover soon!

@Yoshy! At my house!! I am doing all the work, I would never pay a shop to do anything that I could do! Even if it means I gotta learn how to do it! Hardest thing I done so far is switching to Akebonos!! PITA!!

I don't know man! I dont know what happen! She is a safe driver! She would drive it a lot! But I think she will be scared of driving again! She knows how much I love my car and how much work I have put into it! (I love her too).

Update: I went to pick up my bumper this Friday and they ****en overspray on the fake vents and middle lower grille!! I was really upset! They didn't mask it right! I know Rick is a good guy but he gotta switch his body shop! It should be ready this Wed!

There is a perfect body shop in Carson called R&J. They do awesome work.

Off topic we should do some rolling shots again.

I really trusted Rick and his body shop, he told me they always have done an awesome job! I shoul have gotten different quotes Yoshy! They charging me $300 for the paint! I expect that bumper to be perfect! Can you get me a quote from your guys! Sports Bumper OB paint! Let me know Yoshy! Maybe I could cancel on Rick! I am really upset man! I drove 30 miles to pick it up and it's not done right!

For $300? can't but R&J did it for me for $350 and they got it right the 1st time. They took it off and even my body kit they took off and then they put everything back together perfectly.

It better be done right this time man!!! I am gonna be pissed if it's not! I've been waiting over a f9ck3n week for this bumper!! Actually $350 sounds good since they took it off for you and put it back on! You saved yourself some work! They charging me $300 plus tax so it's about the same!

good choice with the sport bumper... and I almost witnessed my gf about to scratch up my rims on a curb the other night... she got lucky. Then again she drove in Tehran, Iran (stick peugeot) so I consider her a pretty good driver due to the crazy driving conditions back home. ...
best of luck!
