The primer look is in LOL.....
 
I dunno about other states but in AL why do ppl buy these expensive body kits on their cars to only install them in a primered state....why!!? Really why the hell would you pay $800.00 for a body kit and not stop to think hey I will have to have this painted and then what comes over ones mind when they decide to install it with out being painted first....

Its expensive as shit to get stuff painted.
I recently bought a bunch of stuff and have yet to insall it on the car just becuase I cant even get a set of eyelids painted for under $75 with some places wanting over $100.

I totally understand it is seriously expensive to have painted but please please do not install them until you get them painted is all I am saying I guess I can not complain about the expense since my brother paints cars for a living and get a kick ass deal on it LOL....

Yes it is expensive but it is like a new toy. They want everyone to see what they got regardless of how bad it looks unpainted and installed.

lol, you guys think that's funny?

try seein' guys here in trinidad without any bumpers!

lol
i suppose they take their bumpers off to have some fiberglass splashed onto it for appearance because after i'd see the same cars with overdone bumpers.
why do they even bother?!

It's the same way in jamaica man...but they take off their bumpers to run around w/HUGE FMICs...lol.

I just got my factory side/rear skirts and front extension, and it's killing me not to fit them up. However, I agree with you all that it looks goofy to have unpainted addons so I will suck it up. This decision was made even easier after seeing a red Civic the other day with GREEN front/rear bumpers.
