Still plodding along guys. Lots more to do, I don't like the look of the intake.

Have you given any thought?

Have you given any thought to extending the center of the upper nose and contouring it to fit the rest of the upper front to match the way the new lower portion sticks out?

Good idea Jaden, I have been thinking I need to radius the flat part, but also adding a curve across it would be good too??

These little beauties arrived today..



I have now started making a mould off them so I can make some copies to bond into my buck then mould it all as one big piece.

Did anyone notice the shape change on the bumper?

Here's one more little teaser of whats to come. I wanna do a review of the kit, but where shall i put it? Here or suspension and steering?? I reckon the latter?



I've had a quick look in the box, it is awesome!!

Thanks for dropping by.. more to come in the next couple of days.

You know guys, sometimes I just can't help myself.. I take a mould off everything. My little dog better look out eh??





I haven't made moulds to make multiple copies of the gorgeous APR Carbon brake ducts. I've made these to be used only once, and the one pair of parts that come out will be bonded into my front bumper buck to make the one piece front bumper.


More to come later..

wouldn't it of made sense to keep the mould just in case you need to remake it for yourself if the bumper gets destroyed?

or just saying that to keep your ass safe from litigation?
