Been a long time since I started this! page 1037.

I always loved this one. Memeber "The Vee" from the UK. Changed his JDM bumper to 8Gb. He really pulled it off.

I digged this one too. "Galant1983"

Second one reminds me of coconuts...who has, by far, the best looking 8Gb IMO

First one looks alright too...not sure f it's the camera or what but the headlights look very tiny there...makes the bumper look massive which is a turn off

^^^Vomit At your foggy headlight maybe. I always liked yours.

First pic so shiny and on RGRs.

Second pic still looking good on G-Games.

The Vee's car was done so well. Perfect execution and detail

[Techn0Nut1996]

What grilles are those on The Vee's G? The ones either side of the chrome Mitsubishi logo? Or are those custom made?

[demond0d5]

Probably custom made the same way people do the grill like on mine. Cut out the fins, form some gutter mesh, glue it in place.

Thanks...and ya coconut front end is nice as shit

[demond0d5]

Techn0 it's really easy...and with the correct tools it doesn't take more than a few hours. Dremel tool with a cutoff bit or saw blade, little sand paper, paint, mesh, hot glue...that's it really. Some bondo/body filler if you mess up the cutting

I think Pete (g-spot) was the one that did a quick how-to...look for Zenko aero something or other...can't remember the name of the grill

But does anyone have any prepping tips for me? Any tips on sanding? Maybe materials strippers/thinners...anyone with painting experience?

[demond0d5]

If you want to keep it chrome (assuming you're talking about the grill) then I strongly suggest putting some tape down first. It'll help keep you from scratching/removing the layer of chrome.

Other than that...pretty basic. Just take your time

If I cut the fin looking things out wont it leave a hole in the grill?

[demond0d5]

Cut the fins out, sand it down, and replace it with the mesh:

Oh, ok sweet. I'm assuming it's the same on an 02? the fins go horizontal not vertical.
