The fender is casting a shadow in the first pix. Makes the overlap look worse than what it really appears to be.



In my opinion, the headlight buckets would look better in a matte black.

The goal should be to make it look OEM, like an exotic car would be.



Still nicer than either of my rx's...

yeah thats why its yellow. you can always rattle can it black, but its harder to match the yellow. so its yellow.



its one of those things where it looks good either way, imo, and its also something that depends on the rest of the car too.

The bumper fitment has not changed! The long shadow makes the rise between the bumper and the fender huge.



The actual size as indicated on the micrometer is not as important as it a good visual size reference



If the bumper was completely flush with the rise in the quarter panel, the headlight lids and middle section of the bumper wouldnt line up with the hood anymore.

it looks good both ways, and we werent sure which was gonna look better. and its easier to come along and paint it black than it is to match the yellow.
