molding front lip to st205 bumper Options

[azian_advanced]

molding ain't easy.

if i could do it again, i'd use better materials and a better paint gun. but in the end, i was somewhat disappointed to have put so much work and still see little cracks and voids which i know will only get worse. anyway what's done is done. sigh*



this was taken from the yahoo japan auction page (3000 yen buy-it-now that's less than the cost of the sandpaper!)
