Well, i had an issue with a leak on the vac bag. (took 2 days to find it) And long weekend family stuff.

The bumper is done, just have to clean up the clay and give it a wash. As well as a trim around the edges.

I took a before and after shot. It still needs trimming to sit in the right spot, and it is as bit high at the front sitting on the bricks.

Thanks, i trimmed the pieces and washed them. They are sitting perfectly on the car.

The view in your mirror as your about to be passed. :lol:

That isn't going over any speed humps any time soon.

Should be a weapon though; looking forward to seeing what it weighs at the end. Any rough estimates?

I am hoping to save about 260 kg's over standard to bring it to about 800kg's. We will see when it is done. This is a kids size batmobile, i am sure they wouldn't want it.
