djtouchone's 2000 Mitsubishi Coltthis is a little project im doing for the mrs.

 

djtouchone's 2000 Mitsubishi Colt

first i took an old beat up colt bumper and cut the bottom off,  the colt head lights are slanted so i used the old bumper to keep a good line around the lights and wings.

djtouchone's 2000 Mitsubishi Colti bolted the old bumper on and then got to work on cutting up the new silver bumper to get the desired look, after proping it all up and get the measurements right i secured it with some screws. On the back of the bumper i used fibreglass to join the to bumpers together.

On the front i used a upvc strip to hide the join and create some shape, i then fibreglassed over that too.

finnishing with a filler to define the final shape
