Once this mould is made I can take a fibreglass bumper and do the other versions ie; Indicators , detachable foglamp covers , foglamp covers with shorter ribs etc etc . The basic shape is the difficult part tbh so once this is done the rest is easy . The few people who have asked me about this have all wanted different things so I've choosen this approach to try to make something that can cater for everyone .
Thanks again for all your comments .
Hawk eye next how many of those are there
I think the bugeye one looks stunning, I've diy-d bumpers in the past for previous projects, but compared to yours ...I take my hat off to you

I have 6 people wanting a proper replica bumper but flat refuse at paying silly money for one.
How much do they want / expect to pay
if they want a proper " replica " then they should pay " proper " money
