Couple more showing the bumper fitment. You can see how snug that rear tucked up to the body after splicing. I feel like Foose n' junk! Although they are thicker than 507 bumpers, they look the part and think they'll work. Very happy with the rear one after the modifications! More to come.... Cheers, Dave

Very nice work on modifying the rear. Looks right at home on there now. How many people even know what this car is, let alone if the bumper is exactly as original...

Only a world class craftsman could pull all this off and make it look so easy. My hat is off to you Dave, you're an artist!

Very flattering, thank you! I started assembling my “show book” of photos I’ll have printed to have with me. Really neat looking back from the beginning.
BMW Classic Car Club magazine is being printed with my story in it. Will share it here when it comes out! Cheers Dave

Turned my attention to exhaust over the weekend and think it came out OK seeing how I basically just cut and spliced things together. Was a fun project. I didn't want to load the car up and send it to a shop, so I decided to just crawl all over the concrete floor for a few days. Does a back good!
 Just tacked in place for now to make sure it all aligned correctly..... Part Two coming up! Cheers Dave
