I know few people done this before but now its my turn! some people cut just grill part and put it in the regular bumper (st,gt) but i decided to do it this way... cutting a whole and make it look like a gt4 bumper! what you guys think? it came out good?

someone done this before??? i know malpaso did but he didnt cut it.. he cut it from a gt4 bumper and put it in his bumper

PS:im still working on my front and rear bumper haha

ok these were my steps!
1. take bumper off
2. spray the are with yellow paint (so i could draw the shape with black pen, because my car is black)
3. cut it
4. start applying bondo all around little by little and with my other hand holding a cardboard so the bondo doesnt go every where. wait til it gets hard and apply more bondo till I get the right shape
5. had to cut the bondo with a small hand saw to make the shape better and then..
6. sand it with 80 grit sand paper and the with 220 to make it smoth

oh! make sure you clean the area where you gonna apply the bondo otherwise it wont stick good!

i hope this helps!
