Swazo covered my method, but Beyond's method is the one I would have prefered.

Appreciate the compliments. The trans is holding. It doesn't like to shift quickly when spraying though. I have a 5 spd. donor car I am getting ready to pull apart for the trans swap. Anyone have some interesting ideas for a bumper "conversion"?

How 'bout a WRX front?


These pics were before the finished product. Oh, and the fog lights are just sitting in there for picture purposes.

I ALMOST like that WRX front end,but there's something about it that I can't put my finger on why I don't like it.

I still think the best bumper conversion I've seen was the Grand prix GTP. That came out so beautiful.

Its probably the angle, but to me it looks like the bottom of the WRX bumper is off centered when it was molded onto the contour bumper...

by at least an inch, could be a mounting problem

I think one of the big things why some of these molded front fascias look weird, is because they not longer keep the stock bodylines of the doors, fenders, and sideskirts. Without them, the front fascia looks like an after thought.

Thats one of the reasons why the molded svt fascia looks so good. Keeps the stock bodylines. Same thing with the grand prix front end this guy molded. It looks like it came from the factory that way. Not to mention, it has all the right curves.

Can you post a pic of the GTP front end or is it like the one that has been posted already?
