As some of you may know, i was in a accident and got my two bumpers and trunk repainted! Dis-stasified with the job but happy i got my car looking ok, on monday afternoon coming home from school, i was being a old vechile and i noticed this wheels wobbling so i back off from him about 15 feet i guess who knows, and like 3 mintues laters i think his center hub-cap thing flew off, mind you we're going around 60 mph, it bounced off the median and i thought it went under my car but instead it hit the bumper leaving its mark .
I ttok my car back to the shop where i got it painted and dude was like i had to pay 150 cuz he had to re-do the whole bumper so i was like fuck it im leaving it like that and now thinking of getting a kit, but i've heard rumor about kits that they give the car more weight? is this true?
Thinking of getting the evo4

well if ur gonna get a kit anyways tehn forget repainting the bumper. as for weight, if its fiberglass then yea it will but its wont be enough to really matter man.
Man with ur Karma right now I would'nt do anything else to it! If its not to bad (need a pic) go to NAPA and rattle can it!.....wait till the Moon and Stars align in ur favor, before putting a kit on it!

I just got another part-time job...but im not really sure about this one here..it was off craigslist in the NY area, ima try it out for now or at least till christmas is done with. Keep in mind that the car isnt fixed, it looks decent but the rear end is still caved in which sucks, im thinking of pulling it out some more becasue i opened teh trunk and on the drivers side rear panel, where the jack is there was a pool of water there... i was like WDF?! so i gotta get that checked out..im try to post a pic up by tonight but it end up being tomorrow mostly
But who else has a kit on their camry, is there any much difference in how it acts/drives?

these kits wont produce any changes, and even if they did it wouldnt be noticed until much higher speeds. Just find one you like and put that one on and be happy with how it looks.
^LOL xet that what i wanted to know...LOL umma pics will be posted tomorrow i think it can be sprayed over but i doubt that autozone has the duplicolor line in their store

to tell you the truth i have no idea, and i wasnt going to get any closer to that car after something came off of it, i was thinking what if i do get closer to him, somehting else is going to fall off from the car and hit me again

is that an actual scratch? It looks like it is just a smudge of crap from the pic. either way u shouldnt waste money replacing it unless u really want a kit and have the money
^ leave my headlights alone... this is about my bumper problems
btw im getting a retro done soon, bought the "clear" gen 4/4.5 headlight off velox_camry and i gotta get some cash for bronzemaxell so idk about my current headlights im more into financial problems atm
