The lower center of the bumper should have been lower to give a nice full shot of the FMIC, also itd help for air flow

and for god's sake put some damn clear coat on your car! lol wink1.gif

You see I couldnt do it that way for rigidity purposes... wasnt sure if i could make it strong enough to withstand a beating.... plus this way I think it will look really cool it i get a larger front mount intercooler and have a portion of it sticking out the bottom hheheh it would loolk hella cool coming down the strip

me sorry but i like the before one better! reminded me of the f2 rally car a little bit. from your pics, you seem to be well crafted! make us some moldings and send them to blacktibs, make a little money off of it you know.

besides that, yeah primer is there for a purpose: for the paint to stick on! definitely will look so much better with paint. no mean to bust your ballz or anything but primer looks like busted up 70's cars from Hawaii 5-0. i can just see the hubcaps flying off in a chase smile.gif

I reckon both incarnations of your bumper are killer cool.gif

Now, to make it perfect, all you need to do is cut the lower portion off & mold it to the top section of an RD1 bumper wink1.gif

sorry guys, i like how the second one look. the first one makes the car too fat and the second one makes it look perfect. maybe you can makes the center piece a lil more thicker so that the sides of the front would not look mis placed.

good stuff once again.
