I'm not too worried about beating up a lip. They're fairly cheap and if theyre pretty durable depending on material. I would just swap hood and bumper.

make sure you buy new carpet in black, i dyed mine and it just doesnt hold up, dying the door panels works okay but not carpet

The carpet is what I was hesitant about so im glad you said something, that way I wouldn't waste my time.
I wonder what if you bleach the carpet, and then dye it.

Just like coloring dark hair to a dark color. Say, your hair is dark brown. If you were to color it to dark green; You need to bleach your hair first, and then dye it green.

I got this to dye the grey carpet on my 240sx from grey:

There must have been some reason I got it, but I never tested it. I took the carpet out to dye it, then washed it, and it turned out to be -VERY- dirty. It turned out it was black, after I washed the dirt out, it didn't need dye.

Now, this is gonna look good! Can't wait!

Thank-you! I can't wait either because I haven't had my rear door panels in my car for about 3 months now lol. The High School I go to is on spring break right now but I also go to college and they aren't on spring break so I still have to go to class. Tomorrow I don't have class so I might be able to get my door panels finished but only if my material got there by now. Fingers crossed!

Also im getting a new hood and bumper today. 01-02 coupe! I hope it like it! Next step is nighthawk black pearl

Got my new hood and bumper today. Paint shop is bringing me the paint tomorrow. While j wait im going to paint my front door panels. I actually took them out of my car at 9 pm. My dad and I are going to paint my hood and bumper tomorrow. Will probably have it on my car sometime this week. For the front lip I think I'm going to do the Bayson R but on foglights im not sure. Just do fog covers, oem fogs, or inspire fogs? Right now I'm leaning toward inspire fogs because they're cheap and I found some smoked ones that I think would pretty cool.

This car never cease to stop being modded! (When I met you, I remember you were telling me that you'd want the coupe front-end; You do talk the talk and walk the walk. :thumbsup:)
