i have to say the front end was a nightmare, and has what seems like a million hours of fiberglass work...

bumper is from AIR, and front lip is from AIR...i have heard alot of negative stuff about AIR, but the bumper fit the car almost spot on, and very heavy solid fiberglass work, gel coat was super smooth, quick sanding and primer and it was ready for paint...

problem with all replica bumpers is they are one piece, you cant remove the "under tray", therefore all the front lips do not just "bolt up"...

i have pics of the entire process on my phone i need to upload on the computer, i am away on business but ill get pics up this week when i get home

but i basically but the bottom half of the bumper off to the level and angle i wanted, and then make a fiberglass mold of the inside of the lip, and bolted them together, just like OEM would do...

brake ducts are Techart so they fit perfect

i do not like 934 flares...and there is a company that makes bigger "stockish" flares...but not sure if i want to go that far with fiberglass

KobaltBlau · 04-05-2011, 04:15 PM

Looks great. You can fit a lot of tire under the fenders it has. Looking forward to your ideas on the custom ducktail.
