Title: Front Bumper
Post by L6ENY on Oct 9^th, 2010, 6:49pm

Hi, Anyone ever tried reworking the front bumper on a face lift? or any thoughts on it? Len.

Not sure what you mean by 'reworking' ? Customizing ?
Facelift bumper looks OK to me anyway.
I think someone on this site grafted a spoiler onto a front bumper which gave a it a mean & sporty look.
Is that what you are planning ?

not done much more work to it since those pics, same with the rest of the kit im building

but the biggest problem i found was that most other bumpers are made out of much softer plastic then the scorpios so you need to be careful or you can crack the scorpio bumper. and dont make it to low!

Hi Matt, That looks good, also those diamond cuts look great, I'm trying to locate a set of soft lines, just found another thread on the front bumper that also looks good just finding the right style bumper, cheers Len.
