my hands have been itching to do some D.I.Y on the car so last week i decided to get a honeycomb mesh grille and started working on my bumper as you might have noticed i do not have foglights and the grilles( just got a plain msport bumper online) so i stripped the bumper off the car and started cutting the grille to fit the bumper

its fairly simple to cut the grille and fit and i just some heat gun to get the corners to hold, i did not burn the clips much just incase i get the original grilles.now i scratched my bumper :rage:.

i had a puncture on my way to work , the back tyre was badly damaged so i decided to get 2 new tyres(atleast il have a spare incase Eish happens) and i took my car to some guy nearby to replace them. when i fetched the tyres an hour later i almost said they should keep them as they where in a Very very very BAD state, the lip was horible :rage::rage:

---

i wanted to get splitters but the price on those things turned me off, i decided to play with some paint( i knew if i didnt like them then i will remove the paint when i respray the car),
started sanding and marking where the paint will be and then procedded to painting

i have to say im improving on my painting skills.
below is the end results of how it looks now after doing the corners with a few coats of gloss black
