You are crazy stopping on the highway to take pictures. I've watched too many "world's scariest" stuff.

Nice, u should powdercoat the IC flat black.

hmm thats a thought. Im surprised everyone likes it with out the grill. I had to remove the grill though there was no way that 3" core was going to fit if i didnt and i really dont want to run that small FMIC that i got. So i compromised looks for power.

yo have you checked the welds on the smaller IC? and how much would you want for it?

**Galant306m** · 10-17-2009, 11:33 PM

the welds could probably use some work on the smaller fmic. pm me a offer on it man i dont want to make a price for a friend lol.

Dude definitely paint that sucker black if you want some keep it on the dl action! I would say painting it is another option though cause its thinner than a powdercoat (heatsoaking) without the mesh its gonna get stoned left right and center. but i painted mine and its been fine! if rocks get it, i hit it with a quick coat since its flat black! :)

Ive always thought most bumper look better without the ugly grill in it. Only one grill I like is the mesh ones on the 8G VR4's.

thanks for your concern, not a lot of cars out there and there's 4 lanes on that hwy. only the honda rice cars will make the scariest stuff out there.

Just picked up an almost imaculate OEM hood and trunk of the same color at my local pick-n-pull for $100 ($50 a piece)!!!!
My car looks clean now :)

**02redgalant** · 10-19-2009, 05:18 PM

no fairr!

**G-spot** · 10-19-2009, 05:31 PM

It could of been better, if it landed on a national holiday the price would be $25 a piece...

**IVORY_G** · 10-19-2009, 05:48 PM

**Galante** · 10-19-2009, 08:28 PM

I gotta go to church with that old setup with everyone in my community giving me the stare (not the good version though), or when I'm picking up blind dates they all get surprised/shocked that a 30 yr old guy still drives a F&F car. Or possibly get reved at every stop signal known to man kind. I'm just gonna follow what's going on the import trend (oh god why) and go for the clean look getting tired of the extreme look.

I'm gonna focus more on the interior/trunk/performance from now on...
