I think I've kept the suspense going long enough, so I'll show you what 7 months did to my NX.

Please note....I still have to put the side skirts on, as well as all the interior pieces and door rubbers.

In a few months, an MS Design rear lip and spoiler will be added.

Modifications include:

Custom Ground Designs (Black Widow) Integra front bumper with 88-91 Honda Civic turn signals
Shaved spoiler, washer nozzles front and back, emblems.
6 coat base, 3 coats clear 1998 Dupont Volvo Yellow

That front bumper looks too big for the rest of the car...kinda makes the car look like it has down syndrome. But you did a good job on trying to make it look different.

as of now i dont like the front but that might be because it doesnt flow with the rest of the body, the sideskirts will probally make it look much better though

Cool! Great to have a dent and rust-free car, isn't it? :D

Now go to Krown and get that thing rustproofed!!

Yeah, the front needs some getting used to, but when the skirts go on and the MS Design rear lip is installed, I think it will take off so much attention to the front. If the front didn't have those stupid vents on the side, I don't think it would be that aggressive. I also paid only $600CDN for the bumper and the molding of the bumper.

At least I now have room for an intercooler!:D

Thanks for the comments.

I plan on powdercoating the rims white in a few weeks. Hopefully that will help a bit. I only paid $600CDN for the rims with brand new 205/40/17 tires.

Do you know a good place for powercoating? I was thinking about doing a valve cover, now that I have an extra.

I like the color very much. I honestly like the wheels to. I am not feeling the fron bumper much. Is it difficult to put the OEM bumper back on?

email jason@deln.on.ca for info. He does a really good job. The only problem I see is the distance for you. He's in Kitchener. He does it on the side, so I'm not sure if he can accommidate you.

Mention to him I recommended you and maybe he can help you out a bit.

Thanks! The stock bumper is still on the car, and the bodykit was molded to the crease line on the stock bumper.

True, that is a bit far for me. Thanks for the info though. If I can't find a place in Kingston, maybe I'll see about couriering it out there or something.
