far out...a bit of plastic makes such a difference.

**An expensive piece of plastic.

How the foglights are mounted underneath.

Hard to perceive how it sits, let alone take photos of it.

Thats ok, ye the lip was off Ebay for 220 posted,but atm they are 10% OFF...HURRY ENDS IN 10 HOURS...

Then obviously you gotta get it painted.

I then paid about $60 for the rear calais guards.

Couldn't help myself!

Just bought one. Now I have a few more questions (im just full of questions, still new to the modding my car scene). How should I go around getting it painted...do it myself or get it done?

I assume the installation isn't too difficult, what do we think?

Cheers heaps!

Haha, fantastic.

Ye, unless you are good with painting, I'd get it painted professionally to get the proper colour match and get a solid finish. (Got mine done cheaper through dad's mates paint shop)...Cost me $150 for the rear guards and the front Lip.

The installation can be a bit tricky...if you can get your car on a hoist it will make things a lot easier. The actual lip is pretty tough to get on, takes a lot of force to get it to clip on, will be a lot easier with two people as you do not want to drop the lip and damage it. It also involves drilling through the original bumper in the exact spots that the drill holes sit on the HBD lip, so i used a bit of white paint and pressed it against the bumper to work out where to drill the holes.

Can you get hold of a hoist? (Was easy for me, just went to dads garage.)

If you want to know more direct questions just PM or ask away.

Cheers

I'm more of a "pay some one to do it" kind of car enthusiast.

I'll probably take to the panel beaters, or somewhere else?
