Bumper to Fender Line/Gap Options

[gabyz]

Now, I love all the lines on the Celi. Except, this one.



Anyone else hate this gap? I was thinking before I get the car painted to fill the gap in with bondo or something. Good idea or bad idea?

Here is my some photoshop to see the diff.





I love the gap less look. I dont see myself removing the bumper for anything.

ok you need the advice of someone who does body work for a living.....don't do it! the expansion rate of steel and the urethane that your bumper are made of are way different, this means that if one day it it 100 degrees outside and then a minute later it is overcast and rainy it may crack on that seam then. also the vibration, since they are different material, as your engine runs OR you go down the road they will vibrate at different frequencies...again crackage.
now then incase of a collision to one side of the front end...expect the price of fixing it to be at least doubled if you want the seamless look kept. like someone mentioned earlier, if one fender is damaged then that means the whole front end will have to be painted counting the hood and maybe even the doors for a really nice blend.

so if you want half of your car to be painted for a repair that would ordinarilly ont need 2 panels then do it....OR get fiberglass fenders and a fiberglass bumper, mold them together and smile because you will have no problems then
