| Post subject: | A little more trimming up front |
So I've already trimmed the front bumper to accomidate the larger tyres on full lock & stuff, but having seen so many good bumpers with way more chop chop than mine I thought I'd give it a go. I'm happy with the result but it could probably have been a little better.

That looks real good! Did you use a saws-all or something else? Turned out great! |

Thanks lads, I used a stanley knife & tin snips for cutting. I'm thinking of getting some sort of edge liner to make it look like OEM. Kind of like a black rubber that can slip over the edge and hold it's self on (or glue it in place), only about 10mm wide but to run from opne side to the other. I will look at Auto1 in my lunch break and take another photo this afternoon. After getting it out in the day light I like it a lot more than in the garage. Cooper STT's 265/70/16 on Cragar soft 8's 5" BS. I've got OME HD springs that are holding a 2 3/4" lift up front, probably due to the fact that I don't have an ARB bar. The rear is 3" (OME + packers). (edit) rims are 16x8" |

Just got some silver edging that slot's on the the edge of the plastic bumper real noice. The reverse of it is grey so I will have a look after work today and see what looks best then post up a pic. Makes it look like it came off the factory floor cut this way. |

Thanks mate, I have to agree with you. I just made it a little better with a touch of bling:D 
You can see the door liner I put on here, I went for the silver side. Kind of makes it look complete, but is probably better in the flesh.
