    hahaha x2! The 8.5 bumper only has a small slit down the sides, but I filled those in on mine. Really not sure why they have that line on the 8.0. I think they had it on the 7th gen as well!

    I just needed to step out/ put my energy elsewhere, but yea..
    Not much has changed

    Installed front lip
    Started smoothing the front bumper

    I'm using some fiberglass resin to take care of the major stuff but surprisingly im not having to use that much after spraying with filler primer and sanding

    I still need to find a good place to have it painted and instal a rubber gasket but im pretty happy so far.
    Lately my wallets been taking a hit so mabey if i have money later id like to get some oem foglights, a new trunk lid and one of cbass's TRD decklids..

    heres some pix, only the last one is "shop dropped"

    That cocaine stripe on the bumper mixed with all the black on it takes the eye away from the awkward black/white thing you have going on around the windows lol

    Lol. Probably a smarter and more legal move. But the tint looks good and as you know protects your interior.

    wow been awhile. looking good dude. yours turned out way better then mine when I did my hybrid.

    now all you have to do is get some grilles (I got mine from home depots *gutter guard) and fogs.

    Why do you always tell people to calm down, nobody is in need of calming. And I didn't say I've been here a lot longer than you. But you have been here just a couple days over two years, and I've been here almost four, plus a year of lurking before that lol

    If that's the case there is no point in the forums at all. I was correcting your error because you'd said we've never seen it, when it reality it is just you. So you are wrong AGAIN, it actually did need to be said.
