YES!...its catching on

looks great!!, did u find a prepainted one or paint that one? the one i had on my gen3.5 was the same color green and the lip i was able to find was nearly the same green.

this one is pre-painted. its nearly the same green as mine. i figured that even if i painted it, it wouldn't look the same since the paint on my car is aged.

if i have the time, i might get another one and see how it fits on the rear; but after trying it on the rear, it would have to be modified to account for my mudflaps.

^ Hey BigBird, what kinda bulbs you using for those bumper lights? In MD, aren't you only allowed to use amber lights for the front bumper? But you can use clear or amber bumper covers right? I'm not telling you what you should do or anything like that. I'm simply asking if you've heard about what I've just explained.

Thanks,
Anthony

those bulbs he has are prolly the kinda that are a blue/silver bulb that flashes amber.

bigbird · 03-14-2008, 08:48 AM

thoes lips fall off trees around here, litteraly. if ya ever really want one lenny i would be happy to pull one from one of the yards around me when i go, but shipping would partially void what makes it such a cheap-o mod

they are the uber illegal hyper white bulbs made by APCrap, blue when off and more blue then white when flashing. i did it just to get consistancy in my light color but i never got any heat from it.
