Default Haha..anyone wanna see my ghetto front lip?

Well, i recently had my car handed down to me with a crap load of problems. My cousin took the worst care of it (figures..my cousin is a female), Well for some reason there was some weird paint problem with the front lip. I got bored and grapped some spray paint. I'm broke too, with no tools and no money for pro paint. So i spray painted it and it actually turned out nice. I'm going to have to re-do it a little to add a second coat to it. It's mid night right now, and ill post pics tomorrow. But if theres no interest...nvm let this thread die. =D



EDIT: HERE ARE THE PICTURES!









LOL. My car is DIRTY.

EDIT2: here is what it looked like before

I did that to my last Soarer too (spray the front lip ghetto style)... did the job for a little bit, then it started cracking etc... I was planning on getting a 97 front bar on it but I ended up getting a 97 model anyway.

Post up some pics

Evotion, The paint started cracking. But the lip was fubared anyway (crappy roads and lowered cars don't like each other very much now do they).

Forget the lip, reseal those headlights, or at least check the vent tubes in the back to see if the filter still exists in them that keeps moisture out. You may be able to plug it with a little cotton and solve that issue in ten seconds.

I'm waitin to get enough money to get a mechanic's tool kit. There's a lot of problems with the car. Being that my cousin and uncle are asian, they dished out money for the crappiest repairs. I swear... i have so much work ahead of me. But nevermind that, i got the car for free. HEHEHEHEHE BWAHAHAHA!!#%$Y YE$Y kidding.
