Those fluids are from my lancer's water tank actually. Coz the wiper's water tank was directly behind the bumper on the driver's side.

How much does a ralliart bonnet and bumper would cost normally?

I've got work on the 6th :(
Any planned cruise a few weeks after that?

yeah that was on the intersection of railway parade and hamilton street. How did you know that :shock:

lol my bad, the lip spoiler I mean was the VRX front airdam. I've already had the VRX rear spoiler when I bought it (and yeah it does cut off the rear vision pretty bad).

That's a pretty bad intesection! I saw a guy get pulled over by the cops there on Friday after work too! probably ran a red light

RA bonnet from mitsu is a couple of grand I think, not too sure on that though!
No idea about front bar, the rear bar is around A$800 unprimed/unpainted though.

We cruise every first friday of each month sometimes with cruises inbetween :)

wow that place must have some bad auras or something!

I was giving a thought about changing into RA bumper and bonnet. err isnt it going to be too RA-wannabe?
Cause I still had my VR rims on and was only planning to change when only little thread left and when the cash is there.

I'll go for the next month or the cruises in between then! :)

by any chance Graham, did you pass the area in cannington station area last sunday morning?
I think I might have seen your car. I remember the car I saw had a front lip spoiler like yours, blacked out front bumper and evo spoiler.

Damn I was off by a few streets :P

Its just and easy area to recognise. And there's only so many railway crossings in Perth :P

Edit: You need to have a think about where you want your modding to take you :P
And how far you're going to take it.
If you have a ralliart bumper it'll sell for more later though... Bonnet might be too wanna-be, all up to you :D

hmm sunday... I can't even remember what I did last sunday :oops: I think I was driving my mates commodore in the afternoon but not sure what I was doing in the morning

Personally I'd just go with the RA bonnet and get a custom front bar, it'd probably be cheaper than OEM too
