Talking My Painted Front Bumper

i saw a guy paint his bumper similar to this while i was in thailand. i think it looks pretty good(although the lines look a little rough in the picture). i just painted the area of the main air duct black.

what do you guys think about it?

Looks pretty good, maybe a picture from a bit further away would give us a better idea.

The s4 bumper on my TII is kinda painted like that... Masking took a while cause I had to adjust the light just right to get a good shadow outline on where the horizontal brace thing (in the mouth) meets the sides (did that make sense?). It flares out as it meets, so to get a good line I had... nevermind, lol.

If you're good with a dremel you can get the real thing by cutting out the bars. Use the cut off wheel to get you close then coming in with the sanding drum to smooth the edges and work the corners and details. No painting required

I wanna see more of those mirrors. I see a little bit, and I'm curious how they look from every angle.

Yup still have the bike lol gotta get rid of that thing. I picked up a black 90 Integra for a daily driver and im pretty much going full race on my FC: gutted, caged, coilovers.....and S5 exterior for some bling. Once i get it back on the road in the next couple months i will be tuning for 12psi on my hybrid turbo...................that should be fun

dude... I like the sleepy eye look, I think it's like that whole bad ***, on the inside thing. Like a trade-mark. You've got to know, to know. Common folk think it's broken, but people down with the whole scene'll probably give you a nod... lol, whatever, I probably will do it once, take a few pictures, than never do it again.
