i finally did it.. got the courage to cut my bumper and put on the cap..

last pic b4 facelift, incision marks already drawn


first cut


cuts complete


followed aj's writeup on how to remove the front bumper, took that off and removed the styrofoam


mounted bumper cap with a crapload of 3M doublesided mounting tape, sealed edges with permatex silicone sealant


and we're done!

Looks good, just needs to be pained or vinyled with the same material as your grill (looks off) And what did you use to cut the bumper?

^ i used the yellow cutting knife u see on the ground in the first pic (before the cuts)
as for painting.. its weird, i actually plasti dipped the piece, but it came out really fuzzy @__@
but i know what u mean.. i might paint it in the future.. though itd be a pain since the way i put it on i dont think i want to remove it (its going to be a REAL pita to do it haha

btw hydro how did u get the tails to be outlined like that and how much did it cost u?
it looks really good

My boy paints cars, and he did it for free. If you want it done I can hook you up, let me know.

The car look good bro, I have a few questions that I asked in your thread about it. No point in posting them in both threads.

Hey everyone,

Just got my 2010 GTS Sportback two weeks ago and I'm drooling at the possibilities from all of your pics.

I wanted to give a shoutout to my fellow GG owners... I'll have pics up asap, but I'm at the office right now.

Have a great weekend though!
