Love the home-printed bumper, that turned out excellent! I bet now, however, with the benefit of seeing out your rear (hindsight 
), you're wishing you played with the curve a little in the front corners, to better match the lines of the front corners of the body.....

Well, as long as your reasoning is soundtamiyadan wrote: ↑Sun Oct 01, 2017 10:52 pm Nay, I wanted to match the curves of the original bumper . you need clearance between the shell and bumper as well as it has to protect the front of the body which is very delicate, also you need the clearance to remove the body and install it.
the extra space also hides foam pads I had to install to keep the body from making horrible vibration sounds against the bumper. So it worked out. I could improve the bumper to match original more but I wanted it fast to run the car.
Plus alignment of the bumper is not easy took me hours of bending and tweaking and moving the body mounts around to make it all sit flat. Pain in the butt.
