Yeah, they did an excellent job of painting it. They used what was called a glamour clear for this job. Wet sanded and polished etc. Looks better than new. I will see if I can get some more pics in direct sunlight.

If you notice in the 3rd picture. The emblems are airbrushed on. Makes polishing alot easier.

I attached the JKL Engineering carbon fiber front lip tonight. It was installed on a pre 99 spec bumper cover. The only modification will be to drill 2 holes in the cover to support where the brake cooling air enters. Other than that it fits very well. Next task is the installation of the rear bumper brackets and bumper.

Finally moved to installing the rear bumper. I'm leaving the cover til after I've installed my rear view camera and remote radar receiver. Here are some pictures of installing it. The biggest pain was running the wires through the bumper.

OK now that the rear bumper is on I went ahead and put the rear hatch trim back on. The only issue here is just making sure you put the main hatch piece with the light on first, then the side plastics and finally the rear cross piece. Everything just clips into place.
