With one last trimming session using two more lower side inserts to 'blend' the edges to the existing bumper, we're finally ready for a coat of black plastic paint and pop into place. Bonded in with a EvoStick's Time Bond contact adhesive and then finish up any gaps with Black Sikaflex, I'm hoping that nothing falls out on the way to work in the morning!
Here's the end result, much better than the gaping hole that was there before:
Not a bad job for someone that has a dislike of working with plastics, spray paints and glue! I did mention in the previous post that I was looking into something different for the finish - well, I've decided against it at the moment... I was thinking of stickerbombing the two horizontal fins but then thought this might attract too close a glance at my handywork (and the whole stickerbomb thing is a little 'last year'), hence I'm leaving them black... for now.
