bumper got cracked a lil while back and I've been too lazy to get a new one so I just put stitches (zip ties and holes) on it. Finally picked one up off ebay for $200 and got it painted for $150

I still need to go out and buy a tow hook because my dumb **** forgot to get the cover for the hole. Here's a pic of my tinted tails just because.



My car is BRM but for some reason it looks lava in this lighting. P.S. apparently our paint is fairly expensive.

 

yeah it really does look hot lava. you fix your cars in public garages? o.o

 

so it is red or lava? lol i was gonna ask what happened to your lip kit but then i read it was brm

 

woah I thought it was lava haha the stitching looks awesome though, glad u got it fixed

 

It's my apartment building's garage. I haven't checked if working on my car is against the rules, but if it is then I could care less because I'm still doing it. Also, I work on my car after my wife and son are asleep so mostly everyone else in the building is asleep too, so I guess that's why no one bothers me.

I thought the stitches gave it character, but then at times I felt really embarrassed to be driving a new car with a busted bumper so I finally decided to do something.

 

Sorry man. Good lookin car though. Hope it gets repaired better than new! Cough Ist bumper end cough. Just saw that it's already repaired.... thought it was before pics, nice!

 

It looked preety dope with the stiches lol Glad to see you got it fixed though

 

It's funny what some lights will do to the color... I was coming out of a movie theater one time and they used HPS lights in the parking lot. I waled by my car twice because it was a completely different color. Not the xD... this was about 8 or 10 years ago. I haven't thought about that since it happened... your pics brought my memory back!

 

Look in ur spare tire tools, theres a tow hook in there....

 

I liked the stitches too! Definetly gave it character!
