Woo Hoo...Shine Auto Amuse FRP w/carbon fiber accent front bumper delivered today! Going to test fit today and hopefully get it to paint this week or next. Time to order some more mesh:

Quick test fit. Fits very well. Needed some trimming on the inside because of my oil cooler. They also have about a 4"x4" opening for the drain plug, but with my adapter plate and larger filter, I'll have to make a larger opening. The FRP cuts like butter. I also have to move my HID fogs in a bit to clear the opening.

Well, many of you know there's an issue with the hole in the skid plate being too small to change oil (unless you want to remove bumper every time). The hole is just large enough to get to the plug, but not the filter. I hadn't seen any pics of what it looked like so I decided to snap a few for reference. After I made the hole larger, I test fit the bumper and the hole was perfect size to drain oil and replace filter with my thermo plate.

Re-positioned the HID fogs and Plasti-Dipped the front (so you won't see what's behind the mesh that will be there after paint)

I had no way to get bumper to paint shop in Mesa (other side of the world), so I drove it there:



Ready for the long ride home



Perfect time to clean the air filters and do an oil change
