Just saw the 350z in your sig pic, Taz, what about the bumber ends and guards off that?
(would mean rebuilding the front of the z, but hey that could be your next project! )

decided on a simple 'lip' around the front section of the front wheel arches. Opinions welcome. Just need to get the lines smooth and then wack a coat of primer on to see what it looks like.

Given it a coat of primer so I can see the rough spots easier once thats dry I will give it another light sanding and try to get it looking nice and smooth (it may take awhile)

looking good. Only thing I can suggest is playing with the shape of the front guards some more, taking the square angle off of the top of where it flares out so that it blends in some more....

you will be pleased to know that I haven't given up on this rebuild. I am currently patching up the putty and trying to get it to a smooth looking finish. It will no longer remain yellow. cant find a decent yellow
