Redesign front bumper
 
This is my first ever bumper I created now that I understand how to work with the materials I want to redesign it and make it look more aggressive...https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...6dba4f941b.jpgOver view of the bumper😁

Good work it came out very nice. How is the light output with those headlights good, bad?

that finished product looks great... Why are you changing it?

marmar Jul 25, 2017 09:33 PM

Cause I don't like it n it stuck out too far had the car looking awkward to me..I want to try and make it look more aggressive

If I'm looking at this right, you're doing spray foam, then bondo, then fiberglass on top?

SoCal Cyco Jul 26, 2017 06:21 AM

looks similar to before? fyi that lower center bar looks like it would crack super easy

marmar Jul 26, 2017 11:14 PM

Yea that's the process with this one...the diy kit

marmar Jul 26, 2017 11:18 PM

Yea it has some similarities but it look more compact on the car now...I hope not but it could thats why i reinforced with a couple layers so it wont crack from normal driving..

marmar Jul 26, 2017 11:20 PM
