While I like the work going into it, honestly I HATE cars with “fat” rear bumpers. I think the line flows better on the first photo, but :tup: to incredible work as usual.

i already test fitted it, it’s not quite like pictured. The main difference is my actual work tucks under more, not making it look as “fat” but lower. The PS makes it look like it comes out and down which appears fatter.

a test fit. I have the exhaust just hanging too, to help w/ clearance while I put the bumper in place.

(The primer coat makes it appear as if it’s glossy and painted, but it’s not…just primered)
