LS bumper is painted and on!
Monday, May 29, 2006 4:52 PM
one of the things people didnt like last time was the bumper i had on the car at the time. here is a very dirty pic of the bumper installed. its just a LS bumper with the lower grill cut out and Pilot 55w foglights mounted in place of GM's. sideskirts dont match the bumper perfectly as they are off a 99' Z24. in about a week the car will get a thurough wash and wax, but for now here is how she sits.

I think I saw this car on an episode of Extreme 4x4...

Is that a Fabtech 6 inch lift kit?

cut it out with a cutoff wheel, then did alot of sanding with 400 grit then 1000 grit to smooth it.

if you wanna get technical, its a Fascia, not a bumper...maybe you dont like it, but i enjoy how it looks. besides, not all of us do the illegal thing and mount the plate in the front window. most of the kids around here do that, i prefer to have it mounted in front somewhere other than riveted to a rather nice looking clip i learned after my last post of pics on here most people are rude and obnoxious about their opinions on things, so rather than take offence ill just observe and smile. beauty is in the eye of the beholder after all

Wow, I think I've seen that done once before and I really like it. Good job! Are you planning on doing the rest of the LS gfx or something else? Anyway, keep up the good work, it looks like you're on the right track.

I just used a razor knife and marked where to cut it. That way no nasty mess from a cut off wheel just nice smooth straight lines with no sanding needed !

A box cutter actualy.
