    Mods, get this fucker outta here!! hahaha

    Yah, I talked to warren already and it's like in the 300-400 dollar range to do it right. So, I figure, I'd check out if anyone can do it for cheaper...if not, I have some bondo and a spray paint can!! haha

    And the funny part is that I'm not joking!! hahaha

    whats wrong with your bumper??

    I got a massive hole in my front bumper at the end of last summer, and over the winter my dad and I worked on it with some fiberglass and bondo..... it still needs to be sanded down but it looks pretty good so far.
    It wasnt toooo hard to do. I'm sure you'll be able to fix it yourself.

    My pops is away on vacation right now, I'll try talking to him to see if he has any spare time to help you out.... but I highly doubt he'll have time ..... for personal reasons.
