has anyone smoothed the standard rear bumper in? Im wanting to smooth the lower plastic half into the top half but wondered as there is a slight step between the 2 can it be done?
anyone got pic`s?
thanks

Have a look at Top Cat's old thread. He managed something similar and it looked gorgeous.

i cant find the thread i think your on about :S

:surprised: Agreed - it looks like it's gone AWOL!
I wonder whether TC deleted it when he sold the car?
worth PMing him and asking for pics. Am sure there will be a few.

Have seen some done quite badly though.
Was going to get mine done like this, local garage said they doubt they could do it properly, and the guy who did TC's has shut shop too

IIRC TC had trouble with getting it done from one bodyshop.
Looks awesome though.

If you like the one piece style bumper the thunderbunny rear like Steve P's is very nice.
