New bumper project (PICS!)
After a minor mishap at the track, it was time for a new bumper. No big deal as the old bumper was full of nicks and chips as it had 128,000 miles on it. I found one locally in near perfect condition on craigslist for $100. The guy selling it happened to be an auto painter so I paid him another $300 to paint it for me. I also decided to throw in a pair of new DEPO corner lamps as my stock ones were tired. Here's the pics.
Here's a couple more pics for good measure.
And here is what your front tires should look like when turned with a proper aligment.

Very nice job,, sometimes a little fender bender makes it worth while.
PS,, paint is fine, I have a silver one too never repainted, and at certain angles in the sun some panels look darker,, no worries, looks great

Hard to beat the price you paid for that front fascia. Looks like they did a good job with the paint and the new lights are
