Hope the fibre glass is very flexible… track the car like that and it will crack for sure. An uncaged 240 chassis is very comparable to a wet noodle. ---

Whats the motivation to mold the bumper into the fenders? You’ve seen what happens to molded bodykits when they scrape, get damaged, etc. You’ve gotta remold everything! I spent wayy to long fitting the bumper and getting the gaps all right that it made more sence to glass it, trust me i was against this option very much but im rather glad i went with it now. I can take the whole front off smooth as butter in 2 minutes without flexing or bending the fenders outwards more than 1/2 an inch. If i had not glassed it id have spent atleast another 15-20 hours with this pos glass bumper and re-re’ing it after paint…id cry the way it creaks and cracks and scratches everything as you try to pull it around the outside of the fenders. In the case i do break it 😃 ill be more than happy to put it back together…i really love working with fiberglass. Heres a pic of the lip to the fenders i had to make when i was attempting the non molded bumper. And here you can see modifications id have had to make to the front of the fender to contour to the bumper…This bumper just fit like balls Everyone hatting wait till you see the taillights i think i am going threw with. Nothing bolt on of course. This is my All out insane car which is why im not holding back anything or making it look normal, this is how i like my car…i have my “normal” fleet of my own cars and trucks and ontop of that any of the shops cars which i use and can take 24/7…the old rolls, 05 crossfire, karman ghia’s, VW beetles all modified and custom. So lick my left nutsack and stop hatting…appreciated. ---

Well, this is a public forum, so i’m stating my opinion. I’m not knocking the work itself (because I do see that you are killing your ass on this car), I’m just saying it’s a bit tasteless. There’s a big difference between an “all out” car, and a tastefully done show car. To me, your car compares to a chick in a clown suit. It’s wild, but not very attractive. ---
