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

yeah! i saw your pics! and looks like you are taking a lot of time lol to make the bumper took me in total about 4 to 5 hours
and i got that shape with hand saw and sand paper bondo is really easy to sand it and get any shape with it and you should know! lol good luck with your side skirts!! hope to see final result soon!

yeah I just finished my sides, and they were hard just because of all the curves and trying as hard as possible to get them flush and looking like they were supposed to be there lol.
You should mold ur sides smile.gif if you plan to keep them that is, makes everything look alot smoother and flow
