you did an awesome job, homie.
Again thanks for the compliments guys.
Update: I ordered the VR4 Rears w/ under spoiler from Trigg and was shipped last Saturday. I'm hoping to get them delivered on my door step tom. am Wed so I can start to test fit and prep for paint. Also able to get the Sikkens paint and reducer the other day too.
Amazing job. I enjoyed seeing the progress pictures as it came together.
I know im a noob but when you say converted drum to disc brake? whats really the difference, since i am looking for some good rotors and brake pads, mine is starting to die on me. i want very good brakes
means converted from the drum brake set up that an I4 comes with to a disc brake set up like the v6 has in the rear. like so

Damn man, I wish had the location and means of doing this, Ive just been quoted $500 just to paint and slightly modify my bumper! Wish u were local! LOL!
I can do your bumper if I'm a local, just buy the paint supplies labour is free until i'm professional. lol
Ok some pics of the progress on the vr4 rears.

I'll have to heat the bottom right of the bumper to push it up to where it should.
the bumper you are putting on looks alot like the bumper u had, minus the add on pieces you have, whats the difference between the two bumpers?
the bottom lip that goes over the muffler is longer so it matches up with the skirts and the underskirts for the rear bumper helps clean it all up to make it flush
Thanks Ivory8g! ;)
oh ok... cause they are very simular... all i know is i cant wait to see the finished product... Is the process eaiser for you this time since you have already done this once before? (painting i mean)
glad to see your getting your monney worth out of your kids tables, loil.. j/k
is that the 98+ vr4 rear you got? so you get to keep your rear bumpuer support.
