Would anyone be interested in this front bumper?
Making a few copies of it just wondered who would want one:
Looking for around £125 for it, they RRP at £200 from what i have seen.

if i were u id mod it mate to make it diff then make moulds. no point making the same bumper. think u should shorten it and make the arch lin on the sides wider for wide arches and also add some cross member on the 2 outisde air ducts ,like icys old shop.

its not as simple as that the mould is the most exxpensive part, making one costs more than buying one new BUT once the 1st is made the mould is ready then and more can be done from that, so if making loads from that something could possibly be sorted out

every1 Ive seen buldges at the sides because its too wide - it needs about 2" or so trimming fro mthe middle -to make it fit precisely - then the grill lines need work as Ive never seen one match a bonnet - hence why I had the gril lof mine smoothed out - and lined with the bonnet - as before it would have had a gap - like both of the above examples

essentially its what UV did - when they bought this out - it just rips off the PSG2 one - with the added upturns - theyve done the smae with the rear bumber -except theyve added vents
Just smooth the vents out at the side & add a "cross bar" is the two side mesh pieces- and it'll be different enough to get away with I think
