^^^ Thats actually a good idea . Thats a better idea then the one I was thinking. I would start by mounting it from the fender well and as you work your way forward use the heat gun to gently message the contour of the canard to your bumper.

Thanks guys and yea the sig is "in your face" so i have to change it when i get home so sorry about that



Tibbytib-if i do that i have to cut the bottom of the canard to split it since its supposed wrap around the bottom of the stock lancer bumper and its about an inch lower then my bumper, and the heat gun thing might work but its a pretty heavy/thick plastic (maybe some sort of fiberglass?) piece plus I've already got the holes drilled to where it sits now on the bumper so the front hole may show...

I would use fiberglass resin and a fiberglass sheet and mold that into one piece that fits.

^^ that's a good idea good sir but I would wait till I got a new bumper to take the time with that since mine is cracked all the way across
