Just a little update. Bit of work done on rear, needs some fettling but starting to look something like.





A bumper thats handmade and unique, epic welldone fella.
That is true modding. :thumbsup:

Cheers JE. Feels good when someone else likes/appreciates your hard work. I was going to go down the diffuser route but decided on this instead. I may yet add a false body line and have a section of the bottom sprayed satin black to emulate a diffuser (from a distance). Also got ideas running around my swede for the number plate light too. Watch this space. :wink:
 
Just a little update. Bit more progress made on the rear, just waiting for some bits to arrive to finish off. See if you can spot the subtle mod..
 
I don't think it that subtle. But very good. You have joined the centre vent in the middle and put some kick ass cool ones on the side. I like a lot :rofl:
 
Have you put a full width slot above the number plate or is it a shadow as the the 2number plate light slots have gone are you doing 1 long led strip

I have indeed got rid of the old number plate lights. I have let in a piece on the front edge above where the plate goes to carry on the body line from the sides all the way across to hide either :wink: one continuous led or 2 smaller Leds. :wink:
 
I can't wait to see your "Distracted Driver Deterrent" rear bumper system.
You know - Something to distract the Lass on her cellphone, or Granny who never quite understood parallel parking.
Just askin'

Those who enjoy investing time and effort in building their own bumper project will understand that stuff can happen.
More often 'stuff' is the result of a distracted driver who happens to run into you.
Sometimes 'stuff' is the result of someone who thinks bumpers are made to assist in parallel parking

Aha. The penny has dropped. Suppose it's a risk we all take. Being the victim of a stoved in door in a supermarket car park in the past with no witness etc. Looking to invest in a dash cam but that doesn't help with the dopey sod who rear ends you.....
 
As someone who has modified my front bumper. And i have an aero rear witch are getting harder to find. I completely get what Bumpy is saying. I spun out at the last track day first thing i did when i got off track check the front bumper check the rear. The bits in the middle can be fixed easier :rofl: :thumbsup:
 
Well I finally got the little halo DRL's wired up and working as well as the fog's, no pic of fogs as yet though.
Had to remove the front bumper again to get the wiring through. :roll:

Think they look a bit different.... :thumbsup:
