I am confident she will awake with an aggressive demeanor, and jdm aficionados will all take a bow. A moment of jdm silence will ensue.

The front lip...probably the part i'm concerned with most! And it's in a highly visible area. It looks like what happened is that from moving around in the box for x amount of time, it actually wore through the clear coat and through the layers of paint alllll the way down to the base part. So there's like a 1/4" diameter black dot right on the side of the f'ing lip. It couldn't be more visible.

I got it from Wayne Acura in NJ...after I received some faulty info from an aziner that the ebay listing from them is the same as getting it through AckTL05, which it wasn't. So I ended up spending $20 more (which I really don't care about) and getting a f'ed up part.

I told them to overnight me a new one (at their expense obviously) and provide me with a prepaid shipping ID so i can just have UPS or whoever come and pick up the damaged part from my house. I'm putting zero effort in getting them their shit back. I'm a vendor's worst nightmare when it comes to this stuff. I deal with it at work so I've become pretty proficient at getting the result I want.

I told them I'll light them up on here (they're very aware of this site) and ebay in general if they do not do what I ask in the time I tell them to.

My work has trained me well in dealing with such situations. It helps when you have a 30 billion dollar company backing you but it's just lil ole me in this case...but they still don't want any of it!

^yeah it's not the easiest thing. i just got lucky and actually enjoyed calculus and physics...otherwise, i would've been in trouble for sure.

on a side note...this thread goes from chaos to crickets for no apparent reason. so odd....

^yeah we were all sluts today...must've been a slow work day for everyone. as for me, i had back to back 1.5hr conf calls so i whored out on here pretty bad.



Jason - I'm still down to do my rear and sides tomorrow if you're game. My front lip should be here soon, but not in time to do it this week. It will likely wait till Monday...or I'll get my fiancee to lend a hand and tackle it myself. I tend to be rather impatient so we'll see.

When i first got my bumper, it was grey. It was a few weeks before i could get it painted, but i wanted it on the car, so for the meanwhile i spray painted it white.

People would actually ask me where i got it painted, and I would tell them i did it myself. While they began scratching their head, i said...'i spray painted it'. And then they would walk up closer to the car and see for themselves that yes indeed it was spray paint. lol.

So with that being said, go to autozone and get a can of spray paint.
