I'd pick WALD over TTE if you ask my opinion.

you are very good at it...I know I asked you this already, but what is your major?

And I need help in deciding, wald or tte? and actually the OEM aristo lip looks nice to me too but its only availabe as a full kit?
thanks lexstacy and nano, I'm not THAT good i just practice alot

My major is engineering-about-to-be-gone. Going into another major but not sure what. Will eventually end up either Civil Engineering or Graphic Design.

I would pick Wald over TTE if I were you. OEM Aristo (the JDM kit) is nice and clean, but I still like Wald over it. But Wald costs alot for a lip kit.

Globe,

You should do some freelance stuff on the side with your graphical talent. You can make some good money. Im a web designer but if i had your graphic skills I would purse the graphical field instead of programming.

For those who painted it themselves,

How do you keep the thickness of the paint uniform, etc. etc.?

I'm imagining you guys with paintbrushes and spray cans, what exactly are you guys doing?

I accidently found a type of spray paint for cars that will match the millennium silver 100% indoor and 95% outdoor Works real well.

I figured that if I"m going to have a rock chip every other week and have to repaint it, might as well do it easily, cost-effective, and at my own convenience.

How do I keep the thickness of the paint uniform? Just 1 coat at a time. Easy.

Go to a car shop like Kragens or Pep Boys and look for something that's silver...... but not the silver color

I finally remembered to get these pics snapped off - please overlook all the grime - the sun hasn't shined here this week.

These are the attatchment points on the drivers and pass side. Even though there is only one in each side, Ican attest that it sits solidly on the bumper itself.

HTH
