I have a friend that does wraps on some cars and he has been asking to let him add a strip to my rear bumper. I let him do it, and I actually like it...

 

fake aspec hahaha

 

Not bad. I see a little ding on your trunk lid :-P

 

keeps the bumper from looking so plain

 

lol... 1 of only 2 dings in the whole car

 

I've seen it done and it looks good!

Clean the exhaust tips!

 

exhaust tips are painted black... I got rid of every bit of chrome and silver on the car except for the rear reverse light panel trim, but it will be black soon too.

 

ah gotcha

 

I think it looks good.

 

Not bad

 

This looks clean and factory, very nice.

 

And taillights.

 

Another reason why the back end looks so plain is because you debadged it. It doesn't look bad by any means, but I always thought the back end just looks like its missing something and is too plain without the badges. Black badges like you did your Acura emblem would look awesome on the back of your car, but that's just my opinion.

 

Looks pretty good...

 

i don't think he's trying to fake anything...
he just wanted to do something different...and he pulled it off well, i think.

 

meh

 

I already installed Type-S taillights, but the trim inside isn't actually black, its more like black chrome looking...

 

I think a lot of it has to do with the bumper being so big. And I always debadge my cars because I like it nice and simple and clean...

Yeah... doesn't bother me, lol... wouldn't be the interwebz without a few douches here and there...

 

Yeah I dig it

 

Great job! How much would that run?

 

I tried that with plastidip but it didn't come out well

 

He did it for free since I do all his computer work for free plus I get him deals on ammo all the time...

 

Mind posting some more pics of it closer up?

 

Not feeling it or the dent... Lol

 

I'll try to get some this weekend after I wash it

 

I like it, OP. Subtle, but breaks up the bumper cover.

To whoever asked about cost, it should be pretty inexpensive...if you were to do it in DiNoc, it should be under $30 or something?

I just got in the materials to do something similar, though there'll be 3D elements to it. The mod will complement the quad tips I'll be putting on as well.

 

I dig it!

 

I watched him do it, and I sure as hell would not want to try it, he had to use a heat gun to get it to sit right, along with a lot of pulling, using a squeegee, and pulling out and re-applying... looked like a real PITA

 

And thanks for all the compliments

 

I am def gonna try this with plasti dip tonight! I'm pretty sure you can get it to come out good if you tape it well then pull off the tap before it dries so it makes a smooth line.

I'll post up pics later if it turns out good.

Def digging the look though

 

Did this with plasti dip! I think it turned out good. The only trick with plasti dip to get a straight edge is you gotta paint everything but the very edge. Then lay it on really thick on the edge and pull off the tape when its wet. If you wait until its dry it won't make a straight edge! Let me know if you have any question.

 

not bad good idea...

 

Looks good. Might have to do this until I grab the lip kit

 

Good luck!

 

^ he already did it haha

check the pics above

 

I like it. Considered doing this on mine, but I didn't think it would show up well on NBP.

 

^ definitely use white plasti dip! haha kidding

 

Good call OP and RxWorld,

I like it a lot more done this way

 

well done OP

 

Nice! I like it!
