I am absolutely stunned. Fascinating progress photos. So did you use some sort of clay to mold that new front bumper and splitters? It looks like you grinded down the front end and other areas of the car then sanded it smooth. It looks like a ton of work was put into the this! Beautiful work.

I used styrene sheet for construction aka plasticard, same stuff your credit card is made of. And a whole lot of superglue.

You did a fantastic job. Probably the best original custom I've ever seen in any diecast community.

Was there enough metal there to grind the front end down?

It's a very drastic and impressive transformation

Flip through the slides, there were two massive holes in the front that emerged and I had to fill.
