Looks good. Body work is one of those things, you either have the talent for it or you dont.

yup, do this as a hobby, so I have the time to make it as perfect as possible. Just have to understand how to feel panels and know what it needs.

Pretty cool. You repainted the WHOLE bumper?
But will the bondo crack with the slightest bump?

it is funny because someone hit my GS on Monday but this Kia was a friend of mine. It was a hit and run.

The filler is a polyester flex putty. It is on very thin as well as I worked the plastic back to shape as much as possible. They sell a few different fillers that will flex with the bumper covers.
