Well props for actually driving your vehicle. I think it looks pretty unique, I'm ina similar situation, but I'll probably just get my bumper repainted and then get either 3m covering or the clear plasti dip and spray it on. Either way, it looks good!

I'm currently making my wife watch all of initial D, so I agree with the other poster, you should of made it the akina speed stars!

When I saw just the taped off piece I didn't like it but all done and on the road I think it looks pretty good.

I tried to do something similar, I jsut masked off the very bottom edge, and made it black, but didn't like it so took it off. but it didn't look good. To many damn rock chips on my Rio I need to respray my front bumper and then get clear bra.

My car club name is inspired by initial d. But we don't drive in Japan so we made a spin off of their name and logo to represent our local mountain roads.

LOL, my car pretty much looks bone stock from the outside other than 1/2 a can of plasti dip and a vinyl sticker.

The custom paint job on the front bumper is a love/hate look. I happen to love it.

I definitely think its an improvement over stock, when your stock is multi-colored yellow!
