New pics of my MR2

Got my front bumper painted yesterday. Took some pics with my buddy's Nikon D60. Just a photography noob so the shots are ok. No editing done.
I'm still missing the sidemarkers so dont mind that.

Nice nice I didn't even notice the side marker. But I do notice the rear rims.. It's not flush.

Yea it the bottom of the bumper does flare out. I dont have any idea how to pull it in. As for the wheels I have spacer but I think i need some a lil bigger and maybe extented studs too. But i'ma just save up for a staggered set of wheels with a better offset.

you could drill some holes and tie it to something under the bumper...

or if you wanna do it a slightly less ghetto way, then you can find strips of metal and cut them to length and mount it.

That's the way to do it !

I'd also pop for a set of fogs to fill in those holes in your fender, would look cool. I picked up a set for only $55 from this link only yesterday, but you might need to wait until their price comes back down again. They seem to have doubled overnight.
