That car is pure horn voxace, you must be stoked with how it turned out.

not too sure how the rear door moulds and dog leg moulds will look though. i cant get new ones so i am getting front door moulds and will try cut and modify them to fit.

did you paint the bumpers the same way?

If you want to get rid of the bumpy surface on the bar, to the usual plastic primer first, but then put down some primer surfacer or similar. After that give it a good sand. Should come up nice and smooth.

I didn't do it that way though, so I have a bit of texture through mine... :(

after i do this, i still may end up ripping them all off
ive been toying with the idea of getting ea guards and putting BA side repeaters in them and having no moulds at all.
though i have AUIII ones at the moment and they look pretty good
