I want the bumper to look like part of the body. Without extending it too far, it will be close to the original shape but with less parting lines, separate materials, and work with the original valance shape (nice radius and interesting torsion bar cap/bumps). It will likely be one piece as shown
Initially I planned a chrome facia as in the original sketch but couldn't solve a nice transition from "body" color to chrome. For now I will run the fiberglass bumpers that came with the car and see if the intake size is large enough to cool the engine. Attached image(s) |
