Just painted my bumper! NEW WHEEL SHOTS! 56k Warning!

Hi guys, just thought I'd show you's some pics of my Talon's bumper that I just painted a few weeks ago, I've been meaning to post it sooner, but I haven't had a lot of time on my hands. I also just put fog lights on aswell.

Have a look:








And thats all for now, I should have more pics on Monday, as thats day my set of wheels are coming in,
man I can't wait to finally get this baby off those hubcaps. I'm spraying the Calipers this weekend, it's gonna
look like one sweet ride when its all done by monday.

Re: Just painted my bumper!

Did you paint it yourself or have it done? It looks pretty decent.

Ah, but it won't be just any Talon looking like an Eclipse. I'm keeping the Talon rear end, and I'm putting an Eagle Emblem on the Front bumper.

Re: Just painted my bumper!

I'd hate to double post, but I just put on my rims last night, and I have pics as promised!











Check out the Eagle Emblem I put on the bumper! Looks Sweet


Tell me what you think.

Re: Just painted my bumper!

Those rims are hella cool. And the Eagle emblem is a nice touch. I replaced my Mitsu emblem right away to a chrome blue one, and it sticks out nice also.

Re: Just painted my bumper!

Those wheels are pretty cool... I've never seen any like that before either. I also like the Eagle emblem on the Eclipse bumper, a true man keeps to his roots. Way to represent.

Thanks a lot for the positive feed back! I think it looks great myself.

Well, I originally didn't want to change the bumper to an Eclipse bumper, I wanted to swap it with another Talon, but I couldn't find a Talon bumpers anywhere, so I got stuck using the Eclipse bumper. I like both bumpers so I'm happy either way. As far as I know, I think I'm the only one whos put an Eagle emblem on their Eclipse bumper, at least I haven't seen it done before.

As for the wheels, if anyones interested I got them from: http://www.tiresdelivered.com. Thanks again.

Re: Just painted my bumper!

Yeah, I prefer Talon's over Eclipses for some reason. People think I'm nuts but I think my Talon is so much sexier than most Eclipses out there. lol

Re: Just painted my bumper!

Looks good bro. The only thing I don't care for is the fog lights but other than that, sweet. I'm ready to get done with my car so I can post an update. I'm also repainting my front bumper since I smacked mine into something....but I'm trying my hand at spraying it myself...I'm going to try out my magic on my new driver door handle first.

The fog lights were a gift, and I felt the same way you did at first. But not to hurt anyones feelings I decided to put them on, and well, I would prefer the stock one's, I must say I've grown too like these. So they're just as good.
