Default MY IS250 is in progress

OK here is the situation, my front end was hit when it was parked, at May 31, then after about one and half week, the bumper came to the body shop. (kinda long tho? but who cares!!) Since the bumper need to change so I also decided to upgrade my fog light to 6000K HID light. The one I was having was a bad light out put. It is a 360 degree LED light bulb and it was my first purchase on light bulb so I was like hey this one look good and I want it, but at the end I was like hmmm? WTH? lol
But anyways this thread is not worth without pics Like everyone else says.

Here is the bumper, guess what it is?

More pics will be up next week when it's done and there I could go with her to the BOS8!!!!!
BTW, during these time, I miss her so much!!!!!
The rental company gave me a corolla; it saved my money on gas but from a fancy corolla to a original corolla... I don't know what to say

yeah, I already have the lip but don't want to do it now since it needs paint job and fitting job, and I need her to go to the BOS8

Glad insurance was able to help you. Front end is going to look good. Where are you getting it painted at? I would remove the Lexus of Serramonte rear license plate frame, but that's just me.

Yeah, I can't wait so excited!!!
The body shop is located at Howard & 6th, called Bee Automotive.
My car haven't wash yet... there are alot of dust around hope the color won't get screw.
I didn't change the license plate frame because I'm not a fan of modding license plate. I'm ok with any kinds. haha. Are you live in bay area too?
