yes i was listening, i just wanted more consensus

i was thinking about a lip kit, but it kinda expends past that point. and i have a feeling its goingto be a lot more than that
i know bumpers are cheap, im just worried about what they would charge for labor, it seems like it would take longer than 3 hours, to paint, re install, and realign im thinking something over a few days

At least you found your vent grille... mine is probably among the bushes/trees on the side of the FL turnpike somewhere... my passengers side was smashed in as well, but we popped the dent out...

.....only to have it hit again a few months ago by some random object that flew out the back of a truck I was driving behind.. this time worse.. now its scraped, dented, torn, etc...


I'm just waiting to save up and get a body kit...
