JDM update YO! lol....
Found a JDM rear bar on Ebay pretty cheap from QLD, rang and bargained them a little. Nek minut (3days) it was at my door! Whilst this was on its way, My Mugen rep rear lip was also on its way (along side with a mugen front lip which I'm selling off)
Being a replica rear lip the fitments was not as good as i liked, even after the body shop had painted and fitted it for me it required some heating up with the gun and re-shaping and im about 95% happy with how it sits now! Few more touch ups here and there!
Big thanks to Alex (plathingg) for helping me out with info i needed and motivating me to modify the rear bar as pictured below.
So here it is at my house, first thing was removing the rear lip and putting it up for sale, money back woop, mock up numberplate location and had to modify the plate so it would fit snug!
Now, the JDM plate being a much taller plate you don't see that big hole above my numberplate, Alex(plaything) brought this to my attention and forced me to fix it which I'm glad I did as it look 100x better!
So found a flat plastic piece which I could use as a base, glued and sealed it to the bumper, clamped down and let it dry!
Once this was done I sanded away some paint so the fibreglass and body filler would stick le-good!
Weapon of choice
Didn't get any photos of whilst fibreglassing as its a messy ass job (and itchy) But this is an after photo with the powder which helps it set, little did i know when it sets it heats up...alot!
Legit hot, 75c hot!
Bare fibreglass
Next day sanded it so its level, and filled with body filler
Perfect timing this arrived night before paint was booked in!
End result, PHAT rear end!
And for those who don't know what the AUDM rear bar looked like here it is!
And thats that!Last edited by Flippit; 14-02-13, 05:43 PM.
