the powder coat is just a touch off but not by much. its nice to be able to powder coat and not really worry bout having to paint to match. no more stone chips for me, well atleast on the bumper that is.

Looks Great! That powder coat should last a lot longer than a traditional paint job!

well i got the bumper cap on today and the billet grilles that go in the bumper slots. i have to finish changing out the hardware in the upper billet sections, but aside from that i think im done with the front end.
