LTBMW l Whorning be gettin' face surgery

I think the title speaks for itself on this one...

The story behind this... I was driving home through a very heavy rainstorm one Saturday morning on the freeway and a Honda Civic in front of me has a part of its rear bumper completely rip off and fly in front of me. Y'all know where this is going... I'm sure the guy noticed what had happened, and next thing I know, he's booking it out of my lane! With how heavy the rainstorm was, it was essentially impossible to get a glimpse of what his plates were. I call my insurance to report what happened and explain that I needed a new front bumper so they asked me if I already had a shop in mind to take it to.

So... WHEN IN DOUBT, LTBMW!

Oh, and the front bumper isn't the only new addition on my whip. I'll shut up and let the pics speak for themselves now!













Love it or hate it... here's how my front looks now! For everyone that is about to comment telling me to add a lip, don't worry - it'll be coming in the near future, along with some more goodies I have planned. Leave your guesses down below as to what else you think I have planned to come!

For those that already know... NO CHEATING!!!

Thanks for looking!

It's been so long since I've seen a pre lci mtech bumper I almost forgot how the look like.

I"m sure you're going to get a lip but please hurry cause it looks wrong without one sir!

Nice upgrade though!
