Believe it or not- the guy charged me $50! It was already in the shop getting the EX-WIFE damage fixed. She pounded an 8" dent in the passenger "C" pillar ( $450 worth of damage). I am in love with the new look!
Now I just have to get the mesh re-powdercoated, or should I say powdercoated. The original a$$hole painted the mesh and charged me for powdercoat, and he won't fix it.

You did a great job on your car. If I had an NBP, your car would definitely be an inspiration. NBP was choice #1b for me; I was that close to getting it in this color.

I also love the license plate, by the way. Talk about the perfect plate. I have my custom plate on order and it should be here soon.

I get to retain the personalization, I just have to get the new color plate. The solid blue matches the interior lights. If that isn't stretching things. I asked if they could possibly make a black painted plate and she said good luck. You can repaint a license plate in Michigan, it just has to be over 25 years old. Were TL's around back then?

thats pretty sick. i really like the way your grille turned out, and attractive license plate. i dont know about the cf eyelids though.. in my opinion, our headlights are sleek and mean looking enough. but love your look none the less
