wow excellent work so far.

 

Update...... Bump

 

nice work.

 

Thanks davedavetc and everyone else for the comments.



UPDATE... Bump.

 

Is the gap between the bumper and lip on the bottom normal for that type of lip?

 

^^^ If you are asking about the area inside both side vents, then yes. Thinking about getting a VRD foglight kit to correct that.

 

no the very last pic that you posted, the one with the large zip ties. Im guessing that is the bottom of both the bumper and lip kit.

 

Hurry up and finish!! I wanna her all done!

 

Yeah, it's like that. It looks crappy... doesn't it?
idk, I need something there to brace the bottom of it, and cover it as well.
Maybe an APR wind splitter. But that isht is expensive for what it is.





Project complete.... bump.

amazing job. looks oem, cant wait to see it painted.

 

watching x57

haha great job so far

 

Maybe some fiberglass on the bottom to extend it a little.

 

^ I thought about that. A while back, I was lookin into this universal fiberglass wind splitter from ED's site. Looks like it'll need some fabrication to it.

Wow! Excellent work; however, I do not think a lip should require that much fabrication in order for it to fit correctly.

 

good work! i personally wouldnt waste my time with that product though. you should send Viniati this thread to show them how it's supposed to look =)

 

^ yeah, the front lip is not worth the hassles for some ppl, but for me, it's the only lip that flows with the rest of my kit. So I jumped on it no matter what it was gonna take.





Bump for DIY finale

 

came out really good, but man that's alot of work and bad for those who don't know to do bodywork like you (the OP).

 

damn.

 

Came out sweet! Nice job bro!

 

I messed with Viniati when they first started coming out with parts. They actually used my tC in their add at one point.
You should never have to do that much work to make a part fit that is "made" for the car. Parts like that should be a direct fitment. Maybe a little grinding since most all bumpers are going to have a little margin in them. But to have to add that much fiberglass to make a part that actually fills the gaps is crazy. It looks like it was made for a different car.

The amount of work and quality of it that you did is great. I give you a good game tap on that. LOL..The final product is great.
