I recieved my "new" bumper. its a stock 94 front end. it's red right now, but has stock turns, the emblem and its in really good condition. right now i have a jacked up c-one knock-off that a friend messed up by hitting a monster possum.
here are pics
the emblem...my car has missed this on front!

so for part one!
i have another blue fender to be put on the drivers side. it needs a little amount of tlc, one minor dent that has been popped to its best, but needs sanded and a little filler to smooth it out. ill prolly install this tomorro, and do the filling and smoothing myself. my dad will help of course. if i do, i know i cant find the color, its a custom color. i didnt get a paint code. i may just leave it as is and get it done w/ the paint.

next will be the new red bumper. i know its a direct fit b/c it is a stock bumper. i love the look. i may, or may not add the grille mesh behind the lower area, i like the idea, but i will have to see it. i might put my fogs back on this bumper also. this will be done relativly soon. i am hoping to safe enough to get splitters.



once all this is done, as soon as i get the cash and time, a new color. the color is Carbon Blue Mica, color code 210. i am plannng on having it done professionally, but i want to. problem is, i need some practice w/ a spray gun, i can make an area. i need teh paint, gotta find a place to make it. so no matter what i need to start saving up. im lookin for a part-time, or full time job. hoping for full. lookin at autozone, advance auto, napa(rather not...idk why tho), a restaurant, or if all else fails, the old burger flippin area. its not bad money only b/c i live w/ teh parentals.

alright, so a little update. i finally got a job, and if i keep getting the hours i have been, then i will have plenty of money saved up in plenty of time for a really good paintjob. i will be doing the body work, but here is a p/s of what i think i may go with...
