The sides flow well with the front lip, good call on both.

Gold on white ftw!

Great job with the paint. Hard to find a reputable paint shop where the customer doesn't have to wait 4-5 months to have their car painted.

Dave YO, what would be an approximate price to have the front bumper on my IS painted? Enviromentally friendly paint sucks, it chips way to easily. Name of the factory colour is "absolutely red".

Also, does your shop carry and apply 3M invisible bumper bras?

Please advise, thanks.

Thanks for all the comments guys, the fitment is off on the front passenger side a little bit, reason for this, is the car was in an accident a few years ago so it has an aftermarket front that does not fit all that well, other then that everything lines up really good,

im really happy how it turned out
