hi guys... i am planning on getting a body work and paint job and i was thinking of doing some mods in the process.

first off my car is a maroon colored '99 Lanos sedan just like this one:

i am posting those 2 pics to let you better see the bumper:

now i am considering a bumper replacment and getting myself the lanos sport front bumper:

do you agree with me that the sport bumper looks much better than the ordinary one? will it look nice with my car color? (same color as the car in the first pic).

also what about the front grill?? i want to change my stock ones with the lanos sport ones:

or should i mod. mine to something like this??

Need your opinion guys

fender = sheetmetal over the wheel

bumper = front of car (where fog lights are)

no you don't...

as for the mod, i think it's a way cheaper mod than getting a lip or a bodykit... although, you have the cheapest car parts i've ever heard of in egypt... no joke, it would be cheaper for you to buy stuff for me and have it shipped than to get it here

MMamdouh · Post by **MMamdouh** » Wed Nov 23, 2005 4:10 am

you got it right... parts are cheap here but accessories - specialy high quality ones - are much expensive here so i am kinda restricted.

as for parts... maybe you all can make a vote and elect someone to trave all the way to here and do some serious shopping for all the parts you need

so what about your opinion? do the bumper mod.? what about the grill??

yeah go with the sport bumber and grille. the sport grille is very rare in the US they just usually come with the stock one.
