I'm going to pay a body shop to do it. :lol:

I'm -almost- certain it's not going to cost $800+ to do some shaving and cutting.

I'm allowed to dream! :D

Fixed that for you.

A decent bodyshop is going to ream your ass for custom work.

Well when I got my SRT bumper shaved, it cost $20 to get rid of the emblem (plus the couple hundered it was to get it painted anyways). So, since I'm going to the same place... Getting the emblem shaved, and sidemarkers shaved shouldn't cost shit.

We'll see about getting things filled.

For me to mod the bumper how you have it in the 5th pic and paint it would cost you $350. Thats using nothing but welded plastic in the holes and on the cuts, minimal filling and using PPG Deltron paints on it. :)

Thats a lot of cutting and refitting to make sure it fits and it won't sag. :)

So, if I go with #5.... should I ALSO cut the crosshair on the lip? Or leave them?


I'll be taking that picture to my local body shop and checking on prices

Hey Opi, Have you thought of painting those chrome inserts the color of your car??? I think it looks better than the black (not that the black isn't a huge improvement). I guess if you had to do something to the front fascia, No5. would be it...

I have that about that hansken... but i already have ALOT of yellow on my car.... so I'm trying to stray away from that a little.

And, despite popular opnion.... I'm thinking #4, becuase with #5 that's going to be ALOT of dead space, and i don't want to throw mesh in it.

So, I'm thinking keeping the cross hairs on everything. (not to mention, it'll be cheaper this way. :D )
