I wanted to know if anyone new anyone or a shop with excellent skills to replicate a TRD bumper,
I have always tought of the idea this might be something that will bring a lot of attention... no, i wont ship to vincent, it would be killer... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

i got stuck into reading ALOT on fiberglassforums.com i stayed up untill like 4:30am just reading on how to make fiberglass parts from scratch and how to produce some replica molds for certain parts, it really is not that hard to do AT ALL if you have the original part in good condition all you basicly do is wax it with some meguiars mirror glaze #8 spray on some mold release to the bumper brush on some tooling gelcoat then apply your fiberglass matt in 1 layer let it cure,remove your fiberglass mold and add alot more glass for reinforcement of your mold, then you do exact same thing you just did for producing a fiberglass mold, wax,mold release,normal gelcoat, your layers of glass and then pull out of mold,trim sand paint and you have your new bumper, of course its more detailed then that but just a quick run through of the steps, id do some reading and you will be making fiberglass parts in no time at all!
