This afternoon i shaved my rear emblems and cleared my headlight corners.



Before pictures:























Then after about an hour's worth of work with zero experience on bumper removal on an xB.......................















Then after running to Auto Zone for some clear 1157 bulbs, here's the final product!

















I should be able to afford my first "official" mod within a couple of short weeks

-18x7.5 Reaction Riots:







With 2" Tanable lowering springs

 

It looks really nice. I like the yellow xb!!

 

I don't like the xB emblem placement. Otherwise looks pretty good!

 

Did you have a god awful dealership sticker on the back of your xB? If so, how did you remove it? Thanks in advance.

 

/\/\ No it did not. The RS had only been on the lot 10mins before i bought it


Dealer stickers are easy to get off. Just pick at it with you finger nails (be easy agaist the paint!) and then if there's any sticky residue left over, then just go to lowes and buy a cheap bottle of "Goof OFF" and lightly rub it off with a cotton terry cloth.


Let me know how it goes!

 

Tell the dealer to remove it when you go pick it up. They are usually more than happy to remove it for you.

 

Nice ....

Hey, how was taking the front clip off ? I have to do it to mine this weekend, any assistance would be appreciated ...

 

/\/\ The front clip?


No quite understanding what in particular you're asking

 

nice jobs, welcome to our happy little family

i might have to clear my headlights and remove my emblems now

 

Yes, the front clip to remove the headlights and fogs ......

 

Nice... I like the clean look. Post some pics when you get your wheels.
By the way, North Carolina seems like a beautiful place to live.

 

damn dealer stickers... I told them I didn't want anything on the car when I got it. Of course they went and stuck a license plate and dealer sticker on the back. The stickers come of easily, especially when they've been on for less than an hour.

 

they should make dealers give you $1000 of the purchase of the car if they're gonna stick advertisements on the back of them...but i'm with Prototype, mine had just hit the lot (tho it wasn't an RS2) so they didn't have time to blemish my ride with a gaudy a$$ sticker.

 

house of steel, yeah removal of everything in the front is super super easy. Check out the tech section for a DIY on front front bumper removal, or just check out the DIY for headlight clearing.

 

Man you got a nice place!
I want to do the" bust yellow plastic thing" but I'm afraid my bride would me if she saw her box all over the driveway.
I put my xB on the front grill. Its on my profile page.
