I still havent bought my grills for my kuruma bumper ($150lol)
the ones you made dont look at as bad

Yeah I couldnt get myself to pay $150 for such a simple thing. I just got the mesh from home depot. Spray painted it gloss black and screwed it on. Flattened the edges with some light tapping using a hammer for a better fit. I was hoping it would be a little less see-through, but the mesh material is too thin. Still not bad for something that cost me a total of $9 dollars lol.

Happy with the way the bumper fit?

Yeah the fit is great. I had to drill out all the holes for the screws n stuff, but the marks where I had to drill were spot on. I would give it a 9 outta 10. It lines up well with the rest of the car.

Now time to prep it and paint It :]

Still gotta install my sideskirts. Then the whole car is getting vinyl wrapped. :D

I'm glad you're getting spacers because IMHO the car just looks awkward with the wheels sunken in like that. The rest of the car is money......except the ebay headlights. :eek:

Yeah gotta straighten out my camber first and see how much spacing its gonna need.

And I love my ebay headlights. Makes the car look way nicer than the originals if u ask me. :dance:

Man, love the car and all but I don't think there's anything better about those headlights vs oem ones.

I forked up the money for the powder coated mesh and what a waste it was. The build was great but the painter got overspray on it. Silver paint on black... you get it. So in the end it was just painted black. :icon25:

I think it makes the car look a bit more modern.

Why didnt u just take it back to him and tell him to respray it?? Overspray is not cool!

I installed the Impul sideskirts. Fitment is an 8 outta 10 in my opinion. I could probably get it to fit perfectly if I spent some more time on fabrication....but once the whole car is the same color then the little imperfections wont even be noticeable. I think its good enough :icon39:

Edgarc6789 01-29-2019 11:31 PM

Yup...the front is good. The rear bumper sits a bit too high for my taste at the moment but I already got the mud guards to fix that...just havent installed it yet.

I did the same thing to get the corners to sit better. It couldve been perfect if I spent more time on it but I had to go somewhere so I just cut it short..I might fix it one day if I ever get bored.

And u wanna see the inside of the car? Its all orginal except for my DDin stereo....nothing special really.

Just screwed it into the frame. Looks ugly, but I'll cover it up and take some pics tomorrow in the daytime.
