I Think I'm going to like that look. It reminds me of a 97-99 eclipse front bumper.

umm.... will you not have most of your bumper support exposed? The gap is the size it is for a reason, there is something under it. Without it, your void any collision coverage.

[youdirtyfox]

Yes it has been exposed, it will stay intact though! my plan is to cover
that hole Ive made in the bumper with this:

egded in this:

and if it still looks too exposed I'll just use a section
of black plastic and intergrate it into the grill mesh,
so it looks factory.

more bumper work today,
reshaped the sides, removed lower corners, filled
top with 3 more layers of FB and more wire
mesh to bring the shape out, then filled.
cut the lip joiner out and glassed it back together.
