    Ok well now I looked and there are three pictures, and the first one is smaller as well. It's big, but not as much. I had to scroll sideways the first time.

    im pretty sure you can just cut yours out, its not as big as the 8.5 gen bumpers so you'll have the stability, just get that mesh lighting cover from home depot, runs for about 11 bucks? and u can dremel the shape out or cut it, drill some holes and zip tie it. refer to rainbow stars DIY, you wont need the bondo part so easy for u.

    i do take pride in only spending 40 bucks on all my trims put together. but if you woulda looked at other threads not only is there like NO ONE thats selling valences and shit but im actually trying to buy the only ones that are for sale... thank you for ruining my self esteem and all my hard work..

    hahaha wow don't cry. yea i rather have a 8.5 plastic welded bumper then having nuts and bolt visibly showed screwed on a cheap piece of plastic with the word illest on it (not). i'll pass on the uneven honda accord rear lip that is does not fit nor does it aline.

    oh... don't get me started on the mud flaps...

    *pats CorollaGT on the back, there, there don't cry.

    no i'm am not the only nor the first to do a 8.0/8.5 bumper. back in the ye olde days on VVT-i.net there was a guys that did it first and that inspired me to copy him and call it my own. (damn, should've save that picture)

    quite simple but labor intensive and time consuming. yes

    the key to making it look nice is the Fogs.

    LMAO......... good one..... (not)

    and could you for one second imagine that i made it look that way because i WANTED my lip to look that way.... :rule:

    and trust me.. im not about to cry because some fag decided to rag on my car cuz hes all butt hurt that my car looks better than his.. once again PWN'd

    and i put the accord lip on for shits and giggles my friend... some one (on this forum) said it looked good so i found another one and slapped it back on...

    and to get you started on the mud flaps.. they were on hummers highly praised car untill he got his valences. which they were also told that they looked good so there.. im pretty sure there is a double PWN'd in there some where. ill just let you look for it :D

    but im not interested in continuing this convo. all i have to say is that my car is a work in progress. who the fuck said i was done with it or that im sticking to any of the body parts i found at junk yards... im just doing what i can with i have...

    your gonna have to bake them if you want to black them out. thats to much of a hassle for me so i tinted them.

    ------------------

    CorollaGT just shut up man. your stupid and annoying. everyone here knows what you put on your car is a piece of shit and a waste of time. just sell it to the junkyard and buy yourself a bicycle.

    self esteem comes from you, not the praise of others. if you need to be accepted by other people to have "self" esteem, than you more problems besides the car.

    well if you wanna go into that; self esteem comes from us deciphering what others think of you. so you it comes from yourself, but if you get talked shit about your whole life thats what you are most likely gonna think about yourself. i mean you can chose to believe it or not but if someone tells you that you are a worthless pile of horse shit your whole life, then what else are you gonna think?

    BUT yes i agree i took it too far with the self esteem... my self esteem is fine honestly. it kinda sucks to have your hard work talked shit about cuz i know he wasnt criticizing. im pretty sure you know what that would feel like.
    regardless i like the work ive done on my car so i really couldnt care less what he thinks. im just standing up for myself cuz my mommy isnt gonna do it for me.

    and people have different opinions on what talking shit is..
    dude honestly i like your car. i dont have beef with you, just dont diss my car. once again i do what i can with what i got.. you dont know my life. maybe thats all i can afford at the moment.. or maybe thats just what i like..? it different to say (damn get a real body kit) than saying "have you ever considered a body kit??"
