no i answered your ? and said it is NOT molded. the front bumper is able to be removed. it would be a stupid idea to have a front bumper molded to the front fenders lol

edit: i suppose my initial response wasn't that clear. apologies

honestly, im rocking the entire full kit, customized every piece, annnnnnd wanted it different from anything on the road. Some will most likely hate every piece i modified/added to the build but i could care less lol


so to answer in short.. because i wanted to be uber different i guess? haha

edit: the m45 bumper idea has been done before & thats not something i wasn't looking to "copy" over onto my build.

Man. Awesome work. I've got tons of questions. Something I want to do As well.

So all you needed were the fenders bumper and headlights. Hood is still the same???

And how did they do it. Did they cut the fenders in half and put them together???

I put what I used in the 1st post. However, I did it the harder way that required more labor.

The ideal way would be to get everything from the doors forward from a '12 sedan andnchop them in half (along w. Your coupe parts) and mold them together then customize from there.

I used my g35 coupe hood but cut the heck out of it....we broke the fenders about 3 times to get everything to line up properly and that was the same for the front & hood as well.
