Default New CETA bumper (in gloss black)

I had a buddy of mine spray my bumper for me, I chose gloss black for a touch of originality, I think it turned out pretty nice. Oppinions?








This one would've been cool if it werent for the damn flies on the bumper, lol.


And one of my new fav's:

Joe, that last picture kicks ***. As for the rest, it seems like it came out pretty well. (My monitor sucks, so I cant really tell how well pictures come out until I get to work and view it on my own computer there) I'm not sure iv seen one done in gloss black before. Mine is in a semi-gloss. Looks good though!

Man, dont get me started on that! My buddy painted it while I was at the beach, and apparently we had a different understanding of where it should be taped. He did it his way, thinking it was the way I wanted it, so I'll just live with it (although I'm pretty sure that's how GMMG paints their blackbirds), it just doesnt look as good as the Collectors edition TA. The paint turned out great, I'm not going to freak out and ask him to do it again over an 1/8 of an inch, I dont have any money it and it's growing on me everytime I look at it.

you need to get your fresh painted bumper a little bit closer to the ground with a lowering kit

Same here - would'nt change it. You might want to think about removing the side moldings

I love that mod! Makes a night and day difference in the way the car looks... it's funny after i did mine i had all the import guys going "i like your new body kit! When did you get the rear valence?"

I did mine in flat black... i like it...

Thanks for the compliments fellas! I know the car definately needs lowered, but that may be a while down the road, I just made a bid on a house yesterday, ouch.

looks good, the rear bumper looks silver though?

maybe it's just the lighting of these high-quality parts, lol.
