The R/Ts work great with that bumper! Good job man

If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

^he's right. my only gripe now is your headlights. The chrome looks out of place. I say either get some DEPO black housings, or some of the DEPO projectors without halos.

I absolutely love that front bumper. Very nice. But I agree, you need new headlights. That's where I come into play... I got a set of black housings with CF Eyelids and HIDs

lol.
They'd look good on your car

the wheels are seventeens. i am looking into a set of primax 925 for it. a five spoke design, something easy to keep clean.
the headlights i am not sure about changing, i just have never seen any of them that i go crazy about.

retros= custom fitting other projectors into the stock housing. LSP has some done, and i believe aww sheet (sp?) is working on a pair for marakka.

How did you go about molding the lip to the bumper so flawlessly?
Fiberglass?

na, i did not use ANY fiberglass on any of my body mods, it is all "mystry glue" i got at a local body shop, it is made for fixing urathane bumpers, so it flexes with the spoiler. it works great!!! then a thin coat of body filler over the rest, and lots and lots of sanding.
did the same with my front bumper. weight is added however. the front bumper is pritty heavy now. (compared to stock) but the look is worth it i think.

nice pictures, nice front bumper. but i really cannot see any sideskirts. hmmm, it's maybe my monitor - but you should maybe take some more expressive and closer shots...
