A little change makes a difference

I finally got around to getting rid of the ugly chrome.

After you take the bumper off, it has some screws and a couple tabs you push to pop it out. I did not take the emblem off to do the wrap so when I get back from Afghanistan in July, I will replace the emblem with a real cf one. I will be getting my front bumper, hood, left rear qtr panel and roof repainted. There are some flaws, chips etc. I want fixed.

BP Auto, as soon as I get home from this deployment, she is getting spoiled believe me! She is a great woman and truly is a blessing.

This is the woman who takes good care of me. She is a keeper for sure. She told me she will have my car detailed inside and out and pick me up from the airport in it when I get home so I can drive it again lol! She took it out not long ago and made a few laps around the neighborhood and had me on Skype with her phone in the cup holder. She was having a blast. She wanted to make a few more runs but was afraid of getting caught by the police lol!
