As you all know I scuffed up my front lip pretty good a few weeks ago. Now all thats left is to wet sand and buff my trunk and quarters I had to fix my front lip, modify my rear lip, painted my calipers red, and threw on my winter wheels.

Heres the lip once again with the damages and some other pics



the chunk that ate most of the impact and broke off I repaired it with duraglass and now its good as new



cut open the center part of my rear lip and will be adding a black grill and also painting the parts around the exhaust black since it was getting dirty from my exhaust anyways so I figured making it black will be less noticeable

Default After one weeks worth of work

I was able to :
1. Raise my quarters to match my spoiler
2. Paint my calipers
3. touch up/ fix and repaint my kit and modify it















Thanks for viewing. More of my work can be viewed here http://public.fotki.com/remydee/the-is-journal/
