New front bar

Post by Tippin »

This was my go at the T's factory front bar with a few changes, all the work on the bar i did myself including cutting, moulding, spraying etc. Have quite a few progress pics showing how i did everything, might post them up later.

All in all im really happy with it, unfortunately the paint is not a 100% match (few factors contribute to that) but im not too fussed as il be doing a full respray in a couple of months. Nevertheless im quite comfortable now with fibreglass and spray painting, and cant wait to do the whole car ... lately ive been practicing a few panels in kandy :D hint hint

also sacked my topmix wing for a spoilerless boot, next job is too spray that and then mould in my rear skirt as i did on the front :D

lol, there is no tip...

the douche who owned it before me put a hole in it to make it louder im guessing (the idiot put the hole after the muffler :facepalm2: so it aint gonna do sh!t) and it eventually ripped off after a bit of back pressure. Although i quite like the look of no exhaust il probably look at getting a twin setup going after i finish my rear bar and get the car re-sprayed.

Very nicely done bro. Not a huge fan of the rims but just my opinion, I can see how people like them, just not me :)
