it only took 11 months
but my fender and bumper are finally fixed. had a friend of mine do it. $200 parts and labor, and the filler for urethane aint cheap. im deciding on what to do about the finish...im going to repaint the whole car around feb, but i dont know if i should paint it so its not red...
anyway you may be asking, why am i going to repaint it if im going to sell it? well cuz im not gonna sell it. even though its leaking oil and has small problems, im too much of a car guy to own a hyundai. this car is just too fun.
anyway here are the pics:

Cool I bet you feel alot better about your car now. glad to hear your keepin it. I would get sum paint on that sooner of at least some primer so the filler dont soak up too much moisture.

I'd just put a layer of rattlecan over the primer and sand it off later if you plan on waiting to paint...

hmm...well he forgot a hole in the front from the license plate bracket, so i have to wait til wednesday so he can fill it real quick. then theres a guy i know who said he can paint it, base and clear.
i didnt know i would need to cover it. should i take it back off? ive been driving with no bumper and fender all week.
