Default A little bored this weekend...

Well , i finally decided to paint the bottom rear bumper. I was torn between a dark charcoal or a black of some sort. I ended up painting it Semi-gloss black. While i was at it i decided to remove the nasty red bird off of the filler panel. After a good wetsand and polish the CETA came out great! Questions and comments , and criticism is welcome





Lowering the car is in the plans next.

It's Dupli-Color Semi-gloss , I got it from AutoZone. At $4.99 a can (+tax) it was very well worth it. They also had flat black and gloss black.
