The black on the ledge looks good man....flows really well. I will be chopping the nose on my 8 when I get back from this deployment and doing something similar. Nice work man!

 

thanks man it was really easy...

3 packages of plastic bumper repair glue
(they come w/ wire mesh to put on the back side for strength)
1 can of bondo (small)
1k nason primer
a can of "bumper" paint in black (more flexible)
180 grit (to sand down bondo)
600 grit (to wet sand before painting)
grinder/dot grinder to cut old piece out

i had a honda bumper we cut the chunk out of cut to fit and plastic glue/welded it in place w/ mesh on bottom side ..

then drimeled the edge out where it would "connect" on the top so that the weld could get down in between the 2 plastics and really bond..

let it dry.. primed..
let it set over night..

then put on like 3-4 coats of the bumper paint.

let it set for 30 mins and boom done!

 

looks great!!! BBY FTW!!

 

look like you did a good job. Im on the fence with the black. It looks good but I'm just not quite sure yet. But I love where you put your evolution badge

Nice work I'll be doin the same thing soon

 

YEA when the lip is on it will look sick.. and the cf hood will tie it off

 

I like your direction. Good job.

 

thanks,.... 10.5 turbo, o2 dump, tubular manifold, apexi avcr, 1000cc inj, ams fuel rail, 272 cams.. and tune on E85 next...

 

looks good.. but addin a grill should look nice too

 

10k? you are robbing yourself of light output

nose chop looks funky painted like that

not a fan but that's just me

 

I bought this lip for my car and the fitment was really good.

I should have taken the bumper off when I installed it so that it wouldn't dip down a little bit in the front. Im going to pull it back off to get it painted so I will fix the gap when I put it back on.

Looks nice!!

 

clearly just you, but everyone has an opinion... i like the black goes good w/ ducts and lip when installed , and the hood i just ordered... and as far as the 10k no worries they work fine for me

 

 

willing to part with your factory hood once you get your carbon fiber one?

 

I liked the chopped 8 nose, but do you plan on leaving it open like that? If I put an 8 nose back on mine I would have to find away to get the mesh and back in there.
