Modifying opinion
The reason i am doing this is because i looked at every kit made for the car and to be honest none of the kits look individual and look nearly the same i couldn't spend so much money on a kit that just clips on to the original bumpers
Modifying is all about individualality doing something that no one else has done or wouldn't dream of doing this is my opinion anyway i don't think theres much chance of anyone replicating this anyway. i mean everyone has there own opinion would be interesting to know other peoples views.

Re: Modifying opinion
Its starting to look its shape, however i must admit, whats with the rear bumper, its really odd in my opinion, its just the big gap, doesn't suit it. Maybe a extension on the bottom to even it out???
Your talking about individuality but whats that bonnet, looks similar to the F50 bonnet.
Are you molding the bumper with filler? Or are you using fibre glass?
Wouldn't like to prang that car once it's finished, it'd take you ages to redesign the bumpers.
Ever thought in molding your bumpers in fibre glass and using it as a mold and some time in the future selling it and the designs, could be a nice little sum.

Its good to see someone breaking the mould so to speak but I still don't like it
I've not seen many kitted bravos/as that looked good.
Although I did see a slammed & kitted multipla on 17" wheels and have to admit it did not look that bad.

Difference with the bonnet is that that is a really mitsubishi evo 6 bonnet which was damaged so i took the skin off and cut it to fit
The rear bumper is made up of a pug 406 front bumper and a toyota celica front bumper u woulf have to be crazy to attempt to replicate this.

i think it looks good. I like to see people putting the effort in and doing the work themselves!

Simply Awsome!
When i seen some of your early pics, i was a bit sceptical, but its looking really good now...
I see you have smoothed the front bumper into the wings, i think thats a really good look...i presume you will do the same on the back, when you do the rear arches...?
I agree with the post above, that the gap in the rear bumper does look out of place, even though its the thing to do at the moment...maybe you could get a front splitter off a 406 or a celica, and modify that to fit...(looking at the work you have done, that wont be a problem for you)
It takes alot of guts to do something like this, respect to you m8, keep up the good work!
