I Would buy one for sure if Gary made a fiberglass replica.

I would have some serious liability concerns with selling a product that involves removing the rear bumper (OEM safety equipment) to install aftermarket cosmetic parts, however nice looking they may be. There's no way you can avoid it in the USA, and I personally dont think liability insurance is "affordable".

[Butter]

Right.

Anyways, a bumper COVER is not intended to prevent injury or damage in an accident. If this was a bumper SUPPORT then I would be concerned about liability. Gary isn't the one installing it on the cars, so he isn't responsible for modifying/removing factory components.

You take on liability manufacturing ANYTHING in this country however.

okay i made some more progress this week. now its taking shape. i'll just need to finish a little glassing a some very light body filler. then it'll be done.

I think it looks sweet.........

how do you measure body compression at speed again ? I cant remember what the level meters are called (and its not "level meter")

You made it permanent if I remember, correct?

[84z31]

yeah its permanent. i think i could make a mold if i knew how to and then make them. if peoples were interested. i spent a lot of time just getting everything perfect. it was a pretty fun project. now all i have to do is all the finishing work.

next up,

making my 86 side skirts fit my 85 body. that will take a while. i still have to fix the drivers side rocker panel. as soon as i get a welder.


and after that, i'll take off the front bumper and make a chin spoiler. somewhat like the factory one. but a bit more agressive.

hopefully in a year i'll have it ready to be painted.

not to hijack like the others but yeah, i'd be down for a rear bumper cover
