Awesome! If memory serves, you were the one that had the spidering all over the front right?

When you say front end repainted, was it just the front clip or the hood and fenders too? How much did it set you back?

Dude, I love your pictures. Your car once again looks the *****. I'm so jealous of your tint. I can't do anything to the drivers/passenger windows in NH. That gets you pulled over as soon as you leave your driveway around here. I did my hatch and top of the windshield though.

A clean black TA, is just something you can't F' with

Once again, lookin' fantastic buddy.

Looks real good. Would almost make me scared to drive it for fear of more stone chips and blemishes.

He uses a Canon 350D Zane-O. I know his skill plays into it but everytime I see his pictures it makes me wish I wouldn't have gotten a Nikon and gotten a Digital Rebel instead.

Looks great Shane. How much did you end up paying to have the front bumper painted and did they do any other work besides just painting the new bumper?

I know that Spuds, guess I should clarify... how much did it cost if the shop that did the work gave you an estimate on it?
