    Ok guys I got my college refund and Ill have some money to make my SE look decent I can get gt bumper covers for $40 a piece from the junk yard and I already have the rocker panel trim for repairing the rust, anything else I should do? and if i get a different color of bumper covers how do I paint them without spending a ton (im cheap and dont really want to mess up the paint job) was going to paint the interior dash gun metal/silver. If I find any wheels i can pick them up cheap with the covers I have torque stars just wanting some winder wheels. Thanks for any input in advance!

    definitely get rid of the catfish look lol. GT bumpers will be a good upgrade. As far as painting goes, get a spray gun. Sand, primer, sand, sand, base, sand, clear, sand, polish/wax

    If you do it right, spray paint can turn out good, it's mostly on PREP.
