here are some pictures of my shaved bumper on a old 88 iroc i had

 

Shaved means removed. I see a bumper there! What are you trying to show?

 

The strip where the Tuned Port Injection badge would be appears to be missing.

 

I love it, that line has always annoyed me., it makes the back bumper to busy, the edge of the bottom ground effect breaks up the body enough, doesnt need the extra

 

i have been wainting to do this to my car but not sure what to use. i want to shave the back strip and both side s where the badges go and the nose badge. i was wonde what did you use to do this? just bondo or the bondo with fibers in it. also did you ever have any problems with cracking?

 

It looks good, but shaving something that long will probably lead to warping over time.

 

interesting, don't really have a yay or nay opinion this morning...

...i do like the color!

 

Annoyed you? I like it. I wouldn't even touch the line. Now the rear of that car looks plain.

 

i just used some bondo ,keeping the spot for the iroc emblem there was a little tricky though.and it never had any problems with cracking or anything.

 

You just filled the groove with Bond? How long ago did you do that & was it a driver or just a strip/show car?

I woulda used urethane filler to fill that groove in. Bondo & urethane (what that bumper is made of), expand & contract at different rates, which usually results in paint crack.

 

yeah i think it was just bondo .it had to be about 6 or 7 yrs ago, and it was only a summer weekend driver.

 

The bondo wont hold up for long, mine didnt! Never painted it so no biggie, a screwdriver and a hammer gets it out as fast as it went in, live n learn

 

it may have been something else ,idk it was so long ago. all i know is it still looks good when i saw the car a few months ago.
