The old y-pipe and cat. The thing was rusted on there so tight we had to cut it with a torch at the flex section and cut it again where it meets the precat.

Slammed into a curb. F***ed up the entire suspension and driver side fender. 3 new tires, 2 new rims and $3200 later it's as good as new.

First coat of Charcoal Metallic. It's available at Advanced for the outrageous price of 5.69 or something for a small can.

Picked this stuff up for my bumper. I figured I'd fill in the large gaps in the bumper. This stuff was $1.97 for a 3'x6" piece. It looks exactly like the stuff they use behind body kits. It came from Home Depot and is where the gutter stuff is. I cut it to shape and then used some JB Kwik to stick it in place. Hopefully it'll stay.

Finished product. The wire mesh makes the front look a little meaner while still being subtle. I'm pretty pleased.

Finished product on the grille. It turned out really well. Couple coats of primer, couple coats of paint, and a couple coats of clear-coat.
