before and after pics of my newest mod!
I know how you feel...
19k on my car as of last night. I've gone through 3 resprays of my Nismo bumper and on my 2nd respray on my Topsecret..

I had to be different and get the green, it's faster!! lol..
I give you alot of props for getting it to be layered neatly. I couldn't do that!
On my way up to Toronto (from Boston) for a week back in August. Met up with some GTA G's also!

BWAHAHAHAHA! Calvin....you're nuts.
Rock chips are a part of life. If your car is a daily driver...you're gonna get rock chips. you can get one from a long trip...you can get one going from your house to school....you should see my front bumper. its all messed up from just driving around.
But i did tape up my car once when i went to streets of willow. didn't really care about taping the bumper, just the lights hood and fenders.
reminds me of Shamu. lol.

who carries 3" painters tape? i tried lowes/home depot but no luck
eh, you can sort of see in my first pic but its kinda dark. for the most part the tape held up very well. there were some loose ends but where there were loose ends i had it layered anyway. so it was fine. and it was well worth it considering it didnt take long at all and i hate clear bras

if you're going to be making the trip often you should consider the oem nose mask/bra. i had one lying around and tried it out on my last trip up. easy to put on/take off and covers everything!
Speaking of the bra, does anybody have (or have a picture of) the OEM bra on a black coupe? I have the bizillion chips too, and I'm thinking of getting a bra just to hide the ugliness of the front bumper and/or protect the next bumper I buy...
