Looks great man, good job!

I've spilt my heart into this car :) And I don't ever plan to stop- 6GC for Life ->Semper Fi<1994 Cupra :p 3sgte1995 Celica ST DD1969 Chevelle SSalllll balls. P2 approved!
looks good,,,, however,,,,
not to be an ass or anything but
have you consider what will happen if for any reason you have to take
the front or back bumper to fix something?
i mean lets say you break the front headlamp...
you will have to remove the bumper to fix that...
Not gloating but I am ASE , ICAR , PPG certified bodyman/Painter. Not being able to take off the bumper is the least of the problems but BONDO is only suppose to be at most a 1/4 of a inch thick and not used to make parts or kits with. maybe your 1st or your 100th pot hole you will have pieces if not all of this "kit " falling off. If I were you before you waste more material I would cut it off and start over with a better material such as fiberglass or carbon fiber and do molds rather then permanently fixing it on your bumper. Im not being a ass I just no your going to regret it 3 mo from now if not sooner

yeah the bondo is only 1/4 thick... i used another marerial inside to mold it and then i add the bondo and it has a metal brackets inside to hold it good. ill see whats happens lol but at this moment i can kick it really hard and it doesnt even move a lil bit. but ill see!! if it brakes ill make one of fiber glass but i almost finish this one so i wanna finish with this biggrin.gif
