    Well it doesn't look like that anymore, I made it look better. The sad thing is that it happened in about two hours. Even though the past however many months I've had it, it was totally fine. But I know the reason, and it is getting fixed.

    I think he was doing something with the muffler when he took that picture, same thing happened to mine but not as bad.

    Nah I didn't touch the muffler in that pic. I think the pipe the it bolts right on to is crooked or something. It's always sat at an angle. I looked at a picture when the same muffler was on wasabinuts2go's car, and it looked a litle more level, and it stuck out more from the bumper it looked like. Maybe he just altered his exhaust more though. Mine is completely stock still. Hopefully he'll read this and chime in :)

    I remember when you got that exhaust, you bolt it on way too high. It was so high that the heat coming out of the exhaust is blowing straight into the bumper. I bolt my exhaust on so high and i've never experience a bumper that burned like that before. It's probably better if you lower the hanger a bit by loosening the 2 bolts. I recently got a new exhaust, i should post some pics soon.

    It is too late to lower it or put a guard on the bumper, I already have a remedy for what has happened to my bumper. Hey hummer I thought you painted your rims that color so your friends car and yours would match? His rims look grey in that picture. And those new rims look good man, but shine up that front tire lol

    Yeah all the rims are the same style, but no they're not all white. White on the left and red on the right. When I get on a computer I'll post up a bunch of stuff. My car is way different from last time you guys saw.

    Yeah I don't know the history of the hood on my car being that it came with it when I bought it but I think the guy that had it before like tried to wax but didn't know how to and left a good amount of residue -_- and just left it like that ... I sanded down the really rough parts and waxed it and it looked a lot better but I really think I'm going to do what you said

    If you're talking about my car then not sure but I think it's from a civic
