I can see that you got rid of the 'supports' are located more toward teh center of the bottom opening,,, did you alter the shape of it as well? or mold in a piece that sits where most of us put our chin spoilers?

3rd pic is just sex for me
I cut out the supports, filled the holes, filled in the license plate frame area, bought and molded in a mach 1 chin spoiler. Made it one piece essentially. Once those fogs are tinted, i think the front might be done....

I have considered. Been going back and forth. I kind of like my grill. Thinking of tinting the pony and ring around it though, just to give it that black chrome effect...
And I can't wait for shows this year. I look forward to meeting you guys and seeing the feedback on my car!

Good job dude.
Thanks man. Always appreciate a compliment. (But what am I making move? haha)

Which Corbeau's do you have? I'm thinking of the CR1's or LG1's. And yeah, I can't wait to get the tint done and the exterior finalized on this car, haha.

I have the A4's. They are a little tight if you are a bigger guy for the non-wide ones. I think the CR1's have more room for the non-wide. But I'm a skinny asian kid who can fit in tighter seats. I may have gotten a wide version if it didn't cost so much extra.

The CR1's in my opinion are really nice and I would have bought those if they weren't so much more too.

Thanks man. And that's the plan as of now - again, the weather is preventing me though, haha.

I think so too. But they didn't have my style in black chrome at the time, and I really like them and how they look. Not saying I won't change them, but it def won't be in the near future...

Any idea what this might cost to have done/copied?

I think the front end of your car is simply one of the cleanest, but most aggressive looking front ends I've seen. I like the 99/01 front bumper, but something about it just doesnt look right.

The supports being gone, and the single color across teh front where the mach 1 spoiler usually is, is awesome *and of course, a smooth bumper > license plate spot*

Thanks man, I love the bumper too!!!

I would bet you're looking at OEM Cobra bumper cost for that... If you don't do body work or know someone that is. Let me see if I can put a price point together on the bumper and everything that went into it and I'll get back to you.
