Who has DIY'ed a front bumperette delete and R&R?

If you do a DIY, remember to really taper the edges. You might also want to make a "buck" to form the inside so as to not get too much filler in there to where it might come in contact with the internal bumper, like mine does.
Also, if you decide to do it yourself, PM me and I'll send you some mesh tape. (You'd be surprised what a whole roll of that costs.) Might have some other materials from the project laying around that I could send to you, too.
Still recommending a good plastic bumper repair shop, though.

Still dealing with insurance, as the guy who hit me was driving his buddy's truck, so his insurance is trying to get the truck owner's insurance to pay it. Insurance covers the vehicle here, not the driver.
Anyway, I have a local lead on a street glass turbo body kit. I haven't asked the guy if he'll sell just the bumper, but the bumper looks like it would fit the bill and I could probably sell the rest of the kit to offset some of the cost. Anyway ever use street glass on a non-track car? How does it look and fit?
