Blair, Nice bumper. Did Demello make the cover for windshield bottle for the bumper?

Nope he didn't and I really do not think it is as huge of a deal as people have made it to be. I don't really see anything randomly hitting that part of the bumper. Plus a big cover would take away from the lines of this bumper, which I really like.

Here are a few pics to show it. You can see in the first straight on shot you can barely see it, and this is with me crouching down.

Thanks man, it is definitely my favorite looking bumper out there followed by SW. I like that it is a little less bulky looking than some of the others out there, like Perkins.

Thanks man. I did not do the vinyl wrap myself, it is a really time consuming process. I have done a little bit of vinyl work and there is definitely a learning curve, it takes some time to get the technique down.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get it done? And how much did that run ya? I'm guessing it is a cheaper alternative to a new paint job? Does it hold up well?

I got it done at Tint Factory in LA when I was still living in SoCal. I called in a favor with a buddy at 3M so I got a deal, typically though in runs about $3k for a wrap.

Seems to hold up well so far. Also, really easy to keep clean. Pretty much just hose it off and I am good to go.

satoshi

hey man, love how your runner has turned out. Noticed you got rid of your satoshi grille. Did you make that yourself or have someone else do it for you? and why aren't you using it anymore?

I actually got it from another member. Took it off b/c I was undecided about the looks. May switch back to it, I am not too sure.

The matte silver looks sick. I just had my rig painted satin black.
