DC5 Front Bumper Build (w/ pics)
so I am building a bumper plug from which i will make molds from out of fiberglass and produce some fiberglass front bumpers-
my photoshop idea:
start of the build (note: this is built just so i can make a mold from it, it will never go on my car like this!)
thats how far i got, i want it to be similar to that amuse s2k bumper-
not sure what im gonig to do with the bupper grill area yet though

Not bad actually. I say Leave the grill area stock, but delete the line that goes across, just like the 05-06 model. It's like the Mugen front bumper, but less curves. I think it would be nicer if the bottom was a little lower. 
Good start though.

Re: DC5 Front Bumper Build (rawNArsxS)
^some progress..
ive gotten to getting these areas sanded down, but as you can see i have added some hard lines to flow with the door and rear bumper--
i cant wait to finish this so i can make the mold and start making some bumpers-
although im prolly gonna be spending alot for the resin, fiberglass, gel coat, pva wax blah blah blah...

Re: DC5 Front Bumper Build (RedDC5)
ok well-
i fully rebuilt the plug- and did a test fit.....
i cant wait to make the negative mold when everything is finished!
i could easily make another mold to fit the 05-06's, pretty sure the only difference with bumpers is the dips in the headlights? otherwize it would fit?
i also always wanted to make a clean and subtle aftermarket front bumper for the usdm integra... but i would need a spare bumper to work with and someones car to get it all set up with the bumper in place.
