i agree with adam. when i smoothed the ridge on my airdam i used bumper fill first then fibreglass over the top of that.

as for the arch extensions, irmscher do ones almost idenitcal to those. wouldnt take much to fit a gsi bumper i would imagine.

we use stuff called smc to bond plastics to fibreglass etc, then if you fibreglass matt over the top it wont crack. it'll look quality mate
