Well, do ya'll like it?

Dolbs4082 · April 9th, 2010, 01:23 PM

shot home on my lunch break just now and threw my new bumper back onto the car. spent 3 days painting, sanding and clearing the bumper (after work every night)

I went from this....

To this, in 3 days!!

Now next week around this time hopefully i'll have finished pictures with the hood on!

Dolbs4082 · April 9th, 2010, 01:32 PM

I'm confused... you got it as a GT bumper and turned it into a cobra bumper? Or are you saying that's how you got the car?

Either way the bumper looks good. Did you use fiberglass to fix the cracked front?

dansgt · April 9th, 2010, 01:58 PM

looks good man, its amazing how much a front bumper changes the look of the car.

Dolbs4082 · April 9th, 2010, 02:29 PM

I got the car as a gt... then bought a broken 03 cobra bumper. i fiberglassed the crack on the inside and out. then filled it in to feather everythign smooth. then painted it.

now im getting a cowl hood that i'll paint, once its done i've got 2 door dings and all the holes from the badges to fill. as well as the spoiler holes.

You sure you wanna see it up close? haha jp jp, for my first time fiberglassing im completely happy with the job i did!

The tricky one is going to be painting the rear deck lid after filling in the holes and geting it cleaned up haha.

dcook_14 · April 9th, 2010, 03:19 PM

Gotcha dolbs. I might have to hit you up for some advice when I start fiberglassing the cracked tail section of my bike

If you're happy with the job, that's all that matters

Just don't do a crappy job so that it breaks again haha.

Dolbs4082 · April 9th, 2010, 04:06 PM

haha, if this fiberglass job breaks... im getting a NEW bumper haha.

BakerFX4 · April 11th, 2010, 02:03 PM

This your first time to do something like that? Not bad homie!

HotRodGT · April 11th, 2010, 04:56 PM

i agree. look pretty good.

Dolbs4082 · April 11th, 2010, 07:19 PM

yep, that was my first experience with fiberglassing a bumper and doing those repairs. im use to fiberglassing boats and stuff... or having metal bumpers. so idk.

I dont think it turned out too bad. and the paint was a pretty close match, espesially for some paint that i had laying around to paint my 4x4 truck with. haha

ajm · April 11th, 2010, 07:29 PM

looks good

Dolbs4082 · April 11th, 2010, 08:35 PM

Thanks man! just cant wait to get my damn hood! haha

ajm · April 11th, 2010, 09:30 PM

Gonna fill the holes on your decklid too since you asked about it the other day? or were you just curious?

Dolbs4082 · April 11th, 2010, 09:53 PM

im still undecided on that. right now i've got them capped just to see what everyone thinks... most people want it back on. so it might go back on.
