    Good luck mang...and i can see your stock bumper.. How much does that bumper weigh?

    Im thinking about doing somethin like that to my car...i can get a mustang bumper for 40 bucks. That is, if i can find one in good condition...thats an 04 bumper right? are their anyother pony bumpers that i can use?

                  well, here's the game plan, tommorrow morning, i will start, by removing the fenders to patch up the bumper, trust me dudes, it looks better in person. ask dave (cablemirc) then i will begin with the sanding process, with sanding the whole car down out of the way, i'm gonna buy primer, from the body shop next to my work, bring it home and primer it. THEN with THAT out of the way, i'll try not to get her dirty for about a few days while i collect some cash. once i get the cash, i'll have them clear coat the whole car for me. done. like i said, hopefully with the clear coat on, i'll get a metallic looking primer color, something like a titanium. i like the primer grey honestly.. and wouldnt have any other color.

                  if you dont like my car, it's ok, it's not suppose to look that pretty, i mean, i didnt like the front bumper, so i put another one on, that's all, just dont call it rice, or i'll pee in your lemonade

                  as the bumper, i used wafer head screws to put it on. don't like it? i do =), and it's not a perfect fit enigma, so you'll have to use your imagination, overall, the bumper weighs only what the mustang bumper weighs plus about 1-2 pounds of bondo, so not that much. thanks everyone. i hope it goes well

                    The side pics you showed me looked kind of awkward, that bumper is nearly to the ground and the rest of the protege is well.. protege-flying-high-style.

                        primer is not metallic.

                        not even a little.

                              if anything, primer actually sucks the light from the surrounding area... do nus a favor and be ready to paint it ASAP. i see WAYYYYYYY too many primer'd cars every day
