Kegger Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I have to say, even though I am almost completely against body kits, that bumper looks pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 hrm, if I recall DE may be one of those states where they do not allow you to reregister totaled cars. There are a couple of them. NJ comes to mind as another one.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallhamer88 Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 well with the laws. From what i was told by my insurance company. I have to take it to State police they have to go over the car to make sure i didnt change the vin numbers and so on. Also have to bring receipts to everything i have bought for my car. Then i got off to dmv to get it re exspected. Yah we will prefit everything and do a so called test shot before we take it back apart to start the painting. As paint comes in mind. I dont know if i want the milano red with the blue flake. or copper red mica, or maybe hrp. I still not sure on my paint ideas.Woopn someone ass would be out of the question she was some freakin hott as blonde model. ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannaBstuntin Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 she was some freakin hott as blonde model. ha Well you got her information though...so take advantage of that.... Do you have any example pics of the paint? I would go with blue with that CF hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubbith Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Woopn someone ass would be out of the question she was some freakin hott as blonde model. ha :stupid: Yeah, i think i would have at least got a date out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 :stupid: Yeah, i think i would have at least got a date out of it. a date in court after i whooped her ass. haha i laughed when you said he fell down repeatidly after the accident. hmm hot blonde girl runs a red light...noooo stereotypes arent true. while other colors can be nice, id keep it red, atleast in some parts because of the engine bay and trunk and all that. unless youre pulling the motor and doing it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallhamer88 Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 Well that is the only thing we are not doing. i wish we were going to pull the engine bay because then i may paint it a prowler orange(stock srt4 orange) or something. Well Any nice reds would be nice. If you have any idea. So far i been looking a copper red mica, and harbanero red pear.l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
