#95603, "Pics of my Talon"
Jul-13-06 03:47 PM by xTheGame77x



          

Just got the bumper fixed up after the huge ass pothole I hit.. and I got the sides moulded on. Very happy as to how it turned out..I actually didnt think that the damage to the bumper was fixable. Like I thought for sure that you'd be able to see a different from the other side. The only part I wish the shop could of done.. was kind of make the lines match up.. from the stock line on the car, to the part of the side skirt.. but I didnt notice that till after

you should paint the grill silver or black, and black out all the hoses and shit they painted red.

Looks nice. But I will never understand why people who decide to put kits on their cars buy fiberglass. I have kits on my two cars and both are polyurethane. It's the best because if you hit something all you have to worry about is repainting. It's unbreakable.

His is actually tastefully done. It's not like he just slapped a kit on there and had it primered to sit for years.

I agree, that would be sick on your car. I think the kit looks good, its not over done like my car is. Once i put my z3 fenders on... it was all over, lol. Keep it simple, it looks good.

yah I think my kit is pretty well done, I have the Z3s but I don't think it makes it look overdone too much.

thanks a lot. Probably Monday I'll be able to bake open the headlights, and respray everything behind the bumper black. Do you think I should spray the mesh black as well? or have the mesh silver...

I have mine silver and i think it looks pretty nice, my car is white though. I would say either one would look good, but my vote is silver.

I say you spray the mesh silver, mount it, see if you like it. Take it back off, spray it black, mount it & then see if you like that instead.

Although, I would think the silver would look nice along with your wheels.

EDIT:
Ever think of sticking the OEM door caps on? Food for thought.

i dont know about the talons, but i know some of the RS Eclipses never came with stock side skirts and therefore i believe they never had door caps either. Since he doesnt know what they are, he most likely didnt fill in the 15,000 holes in his door from where the door caps were and therefore most likely never had them in the first place emoji

I like it without the door caps.

should have taken the side molding off and filled the line at the bottom of the door if you were gonna mold the skrits.
