A couple pics from yesterday

I pulled over and took these last night for fun.

The clear coat on the front end came out like crap so it doesn't match. I'm going to have my friend who has a body shop redo it for me.

Everything was perfect before this brake kit but the hats are larger and pushd my wheels out ~3mm which made them rub so I had to raise her back up ~1/2"


Or, are you talking about the bumper/fender gap? I still need to make mounts for up there so it hangs a little until I get around to that one.

yeah I was talking about bumper fender gap.

it looks like you just bolted it up without using the metal bracket.

I filled in the sidemarker spot so there is no metal bracket anymore. I made a fiberglass lip there so I just need to cut a hole and use the old mounting spot.

I know what you are talking about and I don't have it. With an aftermarket bumper like this you have to cut it out of your old bumper or buy new ones and rivet them into this one. Mine is all fiberglass. This bumper didn't fit at all and I had ~30 hours of my time making it fit. Part of it was filling those in and it was easier to just make it all from fiberglass put in a lip where the bracket would have been.
