Are yo serious? I think the paint looks like ___ ... its looks like a paint can job or something. Not smooth and shiny ... kind of dull.

Glad to see you have your car back though.

+1 for doing everything on your own. and installing the body kit too. But for 3K, was it worth it? When you wrecked it, did you have insurance? Because I know a $500 or even a $1000 deductible would have been better than paying 3k out of pocket. And the body shop could have done the body kit for you too...

not to mention it looks like the driver side of your new front bumper is like... twisted/in on the bottom...

pretty good for on your own, but i'd have left it to the real pro's.

i get that question asked alot, i usually have full coverage all the time, but i barely had moved from texas to cali, i was only here for about 2 weeks i think, so i had no insurance, but yeah if i had insurance i would just paid my deductible and wipe my hands, but i had no other option. but any who i like how things came out.

i totally agree. But that's why I asked because I didn't know the situation. But like I said, +1 for you for even being able to do the work yourself. Thats a difficult task by itself. Good work.
