New bumper on

[fq-craigus]

Well as you know I wanted a standard bumper again to go with more subtle look so took delivery of a bumper off flebay in black. It's a standard 8 gsr bumper so I think ill be sorting something else out for the number plate but I put on the bracket that came with it anyways.
Had a go myself at sole proper spraying, see what you think

the splitter that came with the bumper was damaged so I'm now on the hunt for a nice splitter

Cheers guys.

Yh sprayed it with a gun franks got the paint from local supplier with code for £25 and 2k laquer with Hardner has done the job.

The splitter can be saved just needs the plastic lugs gluing back on but don't know if I can be bothered, have found a couple of aftermarket splitters I like

Yh terry the badge I sprayed up prior to gettin the bumper and jus works nice

 

[fq-craigus]

Oh and the top pic I got rid of all the rust from the cross member, grounded it back, kurust applied and painted

 

[Evo8Frankie]

You on about the 3 plastic lungs that are on the drivers side, are they supposed to be part of the splitter?? i only ask as my bumper had plastic lugs still on it when i got it, they looked like had snapped off a splitter.

 

[fq-craigus]

From the middle to the offside there is no fixings on the splitter. I have found a couple I have my eye on now

Cheers pal. It's a standard badge I prised out carefully from my old bumper, sprayed it black with matt black and lacquered it, turned out sweet aye

 

[kyronk123]

Yeah looks good mate! Might try this myself when I get home from work. Don't suppose you know the size of this badge of the top of your head do you?

No not a clue on the size pal without measuring. You going to remove the badge to paint? It just preises off
