lol I need more pictures in general, every time I would like to go take some pictures it has been raining! Raining too much here in NY lately, ever since I got my body kit put on, but I took today off, and the weather is nice, so I might see if I can go take some pictures today.

Ugh don't remind me, whatever dealer put the bracket on put 5 screws in, and I've tightened one of them so that it pulled the material of the bumper out so I can't even just cover a hole if I take it off... It really pisses me off that whoever put it on screwed it up royally. I heard from someone that NY is looking at changing the law requiring front plates and if they do im going to replace the bumper.

Yea, I have plans of redo-ing it darker, I just used spare wood I had leftover from helping someone put flooring in to give it a testrun. I see no reason to re-do it while the wood is still in mint condition. :]
