Here's some crappy non edited cell pic's of the lower front trim clipped into place... It needs to look lower... The mod process has already begun.
Thinking of not getting the chrome pieces for the bumpers... They have paintable black ones, that I could do something a bit different with. Got to spray a test piece to try it out before I make up my mind though.
Is you car going to be in this movie next year? Just a little inspiration for you....... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akX3Is3qBpw]Mad Max: Fury Road - Comic-Con First Look [HD] - YouTube[/ame]
Something along those lines eMINI... No movie deals yet Dave... I could use the $$$ from one though, it would probably pay for a decent chunk of a proper engine.
Anybody know what the black trim pieces for these bumpers is made out of? Hard plastic? Bumper urethane?
HARD ABS plastic. I found it was easy to cut and shape with a dremel. I used to custom fit peoples lower aero grills so they would sit flush with the stock OEM S bumper. The bumper itself is urethane.
I'm talking the trim pieces that where going to be chrome... The urethane trim like the bottom of the bumper can be a pain to paint because it needs a flex agent which makes it harder to sand out. I am hoping they are the same hard plastic as the chrome pieces with a black coating.
I would think that they would be thin cheap ABS plastic not urethane. You will find out soon, get to work and good luck.
Yeah I have only seen the black ones once... And I cant just go back to Germany to look at it a little closer!
Saw some of your aging work over on FB, really want to see the after pictures. Yes, what's up, you had time to clean the garage? Don
Good grief we need to get an engine into this MINI. What is it going to take? Other than $$$$$$, time and busted knuckles. Don
$$$ Is all it takes to do just about anything Don! I totally agree that it needs a working engine. Here's some pic's though... Its realty all I can do. Just phone edits, will probably get some better shots up soon. Do I want to keep the front euro plate or not? Repeat shot with a different camera effect... :beer
