Ummm
How about one more....of the front bumper....intrigued by the cutout, nice clean look! The bumpers are pretty thin, how did they hold up under surgery?
REALLY love the car beerchug.gif

Let me just say Ya-es! That turned out great, and I thought your car couldn't look any better before you started!

Thanks P! I always said I wouldn't flare the car unless I found some flares locally thinking that would be impossible.. Enter Porbmw! Once I had them at the house, it was a damned slippery slope. biggrin.gif
Here's a closer view of the cut out. I drew it up to match the fog grilles as close as possible. Its 3/16" thk to help with mating it to the bumper. Surgery was easy enough, the shaping of the grille is the tricky part. The bumpers have a "smile" profile from center out, so the grille I made is actually radiused. A flat straight grille would drop from the bumper line on the edges. The original contour is retained, you do have to hand shape the grille(Mallet and bag or some blocks), but easy enough. MetalCraft Adam did the rest. driving.gif
I have the CAD if anyone needs it. beerchug.gif Cheers!

That is SOME artistry and craftsman!
I wish my (long in the distant future project) would allow that.
It is the nicest modified front bumper I have seen.

You must be having a blast driving that beast in the twisties out your way!
Have a good summer, hope to see you around Sept....

I'm enjoying just staring at the photos. The style is so clean. I like that its modified from stock, but it has the feel of OEM. Great work

Is this a factory green? If so can somebody share the paint code. Looks great!

Oops. Ignore that last post. I found the paint code listed further up the thread.
