i actually like how this turned out. doing the whole top half defiantly looks much better then just the bumper, and honestly, i like the design on the front bumper, very unique, very cool. Also, you sir, are very skilled at painting

can someone photoshop that?

edit: also i think the front bumper looks weird just because u didnt stick with the line u made and u left the grill factory color... u should stay on that line all the way across and paint the grill black... photoshop that too... lol

<<<<------- damn that guy is annoying
i have actually played with variations of color, I like this for now...like I said, I'll probably paint the whole thing black, but now that I've done this once, next time will be easier. I can change the paint scheme once a year if I want from now on...it will only take a couple days and cost ~$140. And, you're not annoying at all, I appreciate the feedback!
