First, my intention posting those links was to encourage the OP to try this out himself and solve his gap issue, when I made my first prototype I had plans of making 5 only, and they were all gonna go to friends not posted for sale on 6gc, as anyone, I would be interested on making extra money, but honestly you have not offer something to get me thinking about doing this.

mine came out good, but I'm not good at preping / painting, so it doesn't look at its best. I'm gonna try it a second time, this time it will be better sicne i gain a lot of experience with the first one and know what to watch out for. and after molded in, I'll have the bumper profesionally painted.

If I was to ever sale this, it would be in the range of ~ 150 shipped, so saling them is out of the question, since that's what I think they worth and not what customers ( you guys ) think htey worth.

I advise you to go and try it, follow what I did, and if you have questions let me know. after you are done, you'll be proud of your work and will also understand why I think it worth such amount of money.

I would be pretty interested in a molded piece of this sort if you were to offer it. I was thinking that any price within the sub-$200 range is reasonable, though i know custom work takes a lot of time, patience, and hard work and is probably worth far more than that. I think 150 is a great price, especially shipped. I agree that anything less is not worth your time.

Your work is very good and I think this is a great option vs the gt4 bumper, looks and price wise.

If you do ever get around to making these, or if you will make one for me when I am ready for that price please let me know!!
