E8 bumper mod

[fq-craigus]

As you all know the e8 has a dodgy lookin diamond bit where the badge goes on the front bumper. Well after being re inspired by nige on here I decided I would take the plunge.

Together with stevey b yesterday and today we set to work, yesterday cutting the diamond out and today filling in and smoothing out needs some more fine tuning but I have had enough for one day but looks miles better already

I would team up with you too Steve and foxy, after today I think those wheels won't be a problem and bigger arches would be possible
