That made me bust out laughing. You are now my favorite person on the forums.

Side note, I pick up my car tomorrow, shaved bumper and all.

honestly? i dont recomend painting. i'm going to be stripping them tonight and using lamin-x. (real lamin-x).

while the paint is really easy to work with, i went overboard and did one coat too many and now it doens't match my fogs

also the paint will fade unless you use a UV clear (which i have) but even then it is prone to chips. thats what happend to my STI fogs. paint is good for small things like the DRL's but not for big things like fogs.

if you need lamin-x i have a guy locally who stocks it in EVERY color. of hit up @f n a automotive they have yellow film, thats what my fogs are wrapped in.

also, let me know if/when you wanna do the interior.

We need to get together soon, i def want to do my interior soon, how's your schedule looking like?

Also, if you recommend the lamin-x i def would rather go that route then. FNA automotive they also have the rear fog light kits right? I may need to get those two items from them!
