YES!!!! IT LOOKS GREAT!!! But wait 0_o what chu mean the mid-section is going to extend all the way back to the bumps :/ I think that's going to make it look a little too much like a lip. I like the way it looks now You're doing an awesome job man!


NOW GRILL!!!!! ^_^

If I don't extend the mid section back, there will be no support for the lip.

Everyone...please let me know how you would like it?

It looks like the lip extends all the way up the bumper and the top portion of the lip is painted

Sorry about the pic...took shots on my blackberry.

So I copied the lower portion of the bumper...the lip will not consist of the entire piece you're seeing...it'll be the yellowish portion...the mid section will extend all the way back to the 3 little bumps.


Thats not enough of a lip?

I like it, do you mean its going to extend over the bumps covering them? Or underneath?

I like how the black portion of that lip looks.

What about the grill? Thought it was gonna be done way before the lip?

The black peice is the bumper, the yellow part is going to be the lip, he is using the black part as the mold, Right?

That looks horrible IMO. Way too big. It would look great without that big panel that slopes up.

I think you're imaging it wrong. Just like John had told me, the j's lip isn't just the bottom part. If you look closely at the pic of the yellow fit I posted, you can see it has that same upward slope you dislike.

The black is the same lip but unpainted, making it look overwhelming.


I'm not assuming though, just want to make sure were on the right page
