Finally Got Her Back!!

As many of you know I was involved in an accident back in September where I rear ended a truck. These are the pictures of that dreaded day...







This weekend I finally got the car back from the body shop with a couple of modifications done! I want to thank Marty and Dustin for providing the parts for this work.

Looks great, but why did you get a new bumper? The nismo looked untouched. As far as the trunk goes, did you add the lip or is it a whole bumper and you just put a strip of CF on the lip?

Thanks guys...to answer a couple of questions...

The Nismo front was toasted, hence the KuRookie replacement.

The trunk is the CF StrafeSpeed V2 Trunklid offered by Strafe Automotive. It was painted to color match the car and I had the shop mask off the lip.

Sold it to a local member who found someone to repair it and have it painted.
