spring wash & "new" front bumper, shiny borla

Post by skaterking411 » Wed Mar 21, 2012 1:11 am

got back from spring break and it was finally nice in ohio so i washed my car inside and out reallll good lol. some of you may have saw the front bumper i put on in my progress log. its from tulesto's old car actually. the guy that bought it from him put the bumper on craigslist. My stickered front bumper was getting out of control. wont even post up a picture.. haha it was getting close to being fully stickered because the paint kept chipping off. needless to say i think this bumper looks way better.

I don't think I've ever posted a pic of my exhaust. I just cleaned it up today after winters beating

Haha thanks. I have about enough to do a fender haha. But I'm gettin an oem fender tonight then I have to get a new hood because the body shop fucked it up. I'd like another srt hood. Then I'll be able to paint it. The back bumper needs painted too because a shopping cart hit it and messed it up :banghead:

I love the looks and the sound. I thought about posting a video of the exhaust because I don't think I've seen anyone else with it

I love the way that lip looks how hard was it to get it on to the contours of the bumper?Just to be 100% sure it is this lip correct?

No it's not hard at all. And that is the wrong lip. I believe it's 99 lip.
And they are Megan racing coilovers with 10mm spacers. I know i probably shouldn't have that thick on stock studs but I've ran them for 5-6 months with no problem.

You should I'd like to hear it :)

Your car has a batman mask on, much better than the stickers though that's for sure!

SRT Mopar Borla? Or a muffler setup? I had the SRT Moapr setup on my NA 2.0 with 2 spiralflows and it was ungodly loud. That didn't last long.

i just uploaded a video of it in the video section. It's the full srt cat back. It's Pretty loud but doesn't bother me to much. I had the srt axle back before with no mufflers and that was to much so this is nice to me haha plus I love the way it fills the cutouts on the srt bumper.

Doesn't seem to be too loud from the video but that could just be because it's a video and not in person. Sounds good IMO.
