Zeibart is a joke. You want referals, call a reputable bodyshop (Raymond autobody for example) and ask them who they use.

I'd probably stick around the high rises of downtown Minneapolis or St Paul.
See I was thinking the opposite...go underground in a old bomb shelter or to start digging a hole in the ground. Of course if it was zombies I would probably go with some good face paint and try to blend in.

If you know what your looking for the clear 3m bra can be seen "the edges" but it is pretty thin and clear.

If you get done on the front half of your hood, the edge is noticable. If you only do the front bumper, I doubt anyone could tell without getting real close and knowing what to look for.

Yeah, I'm glad this 'hood is nice like that.

Hey, that was probably me and my kid falling down in front of you.

lol @ face paint. Hey, it probably works. But if it were zombies, I'd want to be someplace high where they can't climb.

I need to focus on NOT buy any cosmetic upgrades. Performance only!

Just got some bad news today that my MIL has to have open heart surgery, which means Tara will be flying south to be with her while I stay home and play Single Mr. Mom. Tell all your Single Mrs. Dads....lol

As best as she can be. They're very close, so it's going to be tough. I can only hope for the best for the MIL.
