custom bumper cover with custom headlight design

I thought I would give a litle preview of what I'm doing to my bumper cover. I have done the molding myself ,no one sells this ,so I figured I just do it myself, not an easy task. but it's very close to finished. this is just a preview of what it looked like before the finishing fine details.

Interesting, looking forward to seeing it after you get all the rough out and paint it.

No, actually it isn't no where near the twisted one. look at their's it is extended out from the fender, but this will be in the same location as the factory headlights.I took the BBR bumper cover and cut it and then started molding the headlights.

Actually Halibrand does not sell that at all - no piece is avilable as far as I have seen - just read that thread.
