Has anyone ever tried to cut a stock bumper and bend it to look finished. I love the GT4 bumper and Im thinking of cutting up my bumper and bending it to look like that. I was thinking of using a heat gun to do the bends, 2 ton epoxy and custom build brackets to hold my bends?
What do you guys think? Any ideas????


By the way, I ordered my Z3 fenders yesterday! Cant wait to get them it!

You can try it, but If your not experienced with bodywork or fiberglassing I do not suggest it unless you have a spare bumper...
