I want to do this bumper on my car.. any particular one I should pick up?
No particular brand. I can't even remember where I ordered mine from.

I LOVED the juice,I had the popular 75hp NOS dry kit on my notch back in the late 90's. The car just hooked and went and was hard to beat on the street. Won a bunch of $$ playin' around back then,good times.Trimmed out the end caps. The rest needs to be done with them on the car. Checked my door gaps again and the passenger door is just a hair wider at the quarter. Gotta readjust it....again.
These are my old nitrous solenoids. I checked them and they all work. Kinda wish my current set up could handle it. I miss purging and that rush.
I tore up some stuff back in the day. That spray nozzle on the far right got to the point where it was stuck in my intake. I just used vise grips on it and the fitting. JB weld held it when it went back in. Man...the days of being young and dumb. I'd spray anything back then.

One side almost done. This is about 7 hrs if sanding, spraying, spreading, sanding....
Might have this and the other side done this weekend. It still needs to have the front edge trimmed off. Coming out decent so far. This is a black primer. Lots more sanding and glazing to do. Final step will be sanding it and the bumper and a coat of semi gloss black.
I’m curious..You’ve spent all this time duplicating this contour. It doesn’t match the Fox lines on top. Isn’t that the contour from the donor car?
Looks good to me! Looks strong, looks solid, looks square! Gonna come out looking real good with the finished wares I wager
Not sure if it is even possible but If it were me I would figure out a way to make a quality mold off them before install. Just so if you would ever need to replace one in the future you could cut the time down by a ton.
You think it would probably be worth your time and honestly allot of people are trying to do what you've done with that bumper so worst case you could sell one set here and there in the future.I like this idea. I know how to make old style plaster molds. Might have to research epoxy molds.
