Lucky catch
 
Ok this is just a warning...I have found a guy selling a front urethane bumper for the accord and Hopefully I'll be going to pick it up and make sure it's what I want in an hour or less....and for $80 you can't beat that. since my front lip was destroyed..I just stumbled across this

ebpda9 06-07-2005 03:00 PM

damn, and i was hoping you caught some STD's ;)

IALuder 06-07-2005 03:30 PM

well, i wont make a judgement if its good or not till i see this front bumper.

CD5Passion 06-07-2005 07:14 PM

its nice even tho for now it's red....it's straight bolt on and fit perfect..no gap no nothing...tomorow me and my buddy will be sanding it down and priming it..probably take it to maaco or something for paint since it's just a bumper
ill get a picture tonight after i get off work

KwikR6 06-07-2005 08:36 PM

hrm....it better not make your car look like poop

IALuder 06-08-2005 01:00 AM

macco = shit thats all i got to say about that.

CD5Passion 06-08-2005 01:00 AM

I like the way it looks, close to stock i just have to go to the junkyard and find the 94-95 bumper lenses.....xenon did a weird thing by putting holes only big enough for those year lights instead of the 96-97

Good luck once the paint starts to flake off.

As long as the prep work is done right...all macco has to do is spray it...should hold up.

ebpda9 06-08-2005 11:33 AM

i like it, but it looks like the bumper has some STD's;)

CD5Passion 06-08-2005 11:58 AM

i've heard for the most part it's not the paint that mainly sucks at maaco but the prep work that causes it to flake
still i may fine a better place and get priced at one of those places

ebpda9 06-08-2005 12:21 PM

there is a shop around here that asked me $175 to have my bumper painted, and $600 for the whole car.

IALuder 06-08-2005 02:38 PM

i got a quote for a grand for a completely new paint job. that including labor and prep work. best damn shop in town quoted me that.

Mischief 06-08-2005 05:14 PM

CD5Passion 06-08-2005 06:32 PM

Shitty deal..oh well the new bumper looks good anyway

Upon reading the thread title and the huge smiley face icon..I thought this thread would be about you finding a girl. Then to see "Ok this is just a warning...I have found a guy" I had crazy thoughts for a brief second or two... Whoa, that was hardcore. :paranoid:

To respond to the thread, A) the new bumper looks nice. B) that lip was sexy and C) I still like your car better before the bumper. Simplicity at its finest.
