Shaved Bumper ?'s
#1
Hey guys!

As you know i bought a Evo3 front buimper... B)

I'm wanting to try and shave the factory body lines that were incorperated in their design in order to "clean up" the looks of the bumper. And i might even delete the factory bumper signal light holes as i have side fender markers i am going to use (on the fenders).

Can anyone give me any tips on how to do this and what materials i need?

And NO a DIFFERENT BUMPER is NOT an option (for all you HATERS) :lol:

My guess is duraflex or possibly fiberglass, it seems pretty thin if it is fiberglass

LOL not even close, way cheaper quality.
It's maybe 1/3 the thinkness of the Cervini bumpers

I'm probably going to coat it in rockergaurd, before i paint it, in order to strengthen it up a bit :lol:
