Yes sir!
I came across a deal I couldn't resist for a brand new SR lip in CF.
I've already.spend many dollars with 99.9% of that wastes due to learning experience...
The CF is what im.going for and the SR lip is what i need to chop cut and modify.....
That will give me the results im hoping for minus the major mold costs......
Sometimes it is best to cheat a touch

So now im thinkin of scraping the idea of the bumper.....

Its not because it work out, cause im 99% it will. My concern will be if i ever go to sell it and the person doesn't like the look, I'll have to buy a new 40th bumper...
There's a lot to modify with the bumper, crash bar foam and reinforcement to hold the carbon fiber.....
I guess what im saying is that i really want to drive my car soon and this could take another month or so to complete on my car. As of now im working it on the black bumper i got from MarcusZ.

I miss driving her

You can always finish this later if you have space for it

LMBmikeZ · 03-17-2014, 07:56 PM

keep plugging away at it over time if it is a spare bumper anyway. I wouldn't rush it. keep driving your z as is for this year.

This is true

I guess we'll see come the new season

Luciano13 · 03-25-2014, 06:41 PM

The front bumper mold is finally complete

Now I would post pics, however this is not your typical mold

Its actually made of aluminum

tomorrow that aluminum will turn to the black/red carbon fiber

If all works out, which im 99.9213% it should.......
I will post pics, but off the bumper..... once I work out the brackets...
I will post final look

LMBmikeZ · 03-25-2014, 07:52 PM

OMG!

this is the best news I have heard in a while

Luciano13 · 03-25-2014, 09:13 PM

I almost gave up on the whole custom bumper project

But i stuck to her thanks to a few of you members

. Thursday it should be 100% done with Saturday 100% transferred to my Z
