I've gotten flak before for this already It was shortly after I painted the car, so I just grabbed the rims and stuck them on to take some pictures.. notice how faded the tires look. Within a week of those pictures, I had new tires and painted the rims Gunmetal Grey. They look like my signature now, but it's the land of snow and ice, and the 7 isn't really up for another photoshoot right now, so that's the best pic I have of its trim

My brother has a plastic welder that does ABS very nicely. I may have to try filling in the moulding on my spare bumper from my parts car.

At least your fix was that easy. My seven has three left rims. The right side always looks wrong!

ShureShot, that black seven looks sweet. Is that a shaved stock bumper, or aftermarket? If it's shaved, tell us how you did it.

Ouch, that would suck having three left rims, it's even worse than two left feet!

I need to reserach this ABS welder, any idea what one costs/where to get one? (bug your bro for me )

SureShot - What method did you use to smooth your bumper, looks really good!

I Eat Civics - Nice looking car, any info on how they smoothed over the bumpers?

I EAT CIVICS: that's nice, it looks awesome with the bumpers molded into the fenders. How durable is that though, would stress cracks form at the joints?
