This is my little winter project.

Well, my car is in hibernation and I figured this is a perfect time to do something like this.
I had a small dent and minor touchup repairs on the front bumper which were bothering me everytime I saw them. Finally I decided to repaint the bumper and this time I also paint the side skirts, aerokit front lip and rear bumper lower valence.
I also bought the gt2rs fender flares to make my car look wider front. My front wheels/tires are aggressive enough to fill the extra fender gap so I'm sure they will look fantastic. I can't wait to finish up this project! I will install Xpel clear bra again right before spring time.
Once I installed them, I will definitely post some pics.

Yep Lansdale...I've seen you around 5 points at night...I was looking at LIP but you know how it is finding a new shop. Can you PM me what they charge you for a front bumper repaint?
Thanks.
