    I really understand why you have so many subscribers. I believe you inspire people to attack one off projects and make ideas from their imagination reality. I am budgeting to buy full aftermarket body kits, but watching this vid and all the work you did a mr2 really has inspired me to get a decent grasp on fiberglass fabrication and modding oem parts from the pull yard to make a unique kit.

    I know Ive said this before... but man I have to say you're doing a great job with that boy of yours... someday he'll look back at these and love you for this... It takes a good man to stand on his own. It takes a good man to show the love that children need without fearing that others around in view may feel him weak for it. Great work on the car... as always, but the best work youre doing is with your family. Much love and respect from Cincinnati!

    Good work. I modded the bumper on what then was a new 1989 Ford Escort here in the UK. Ford didn't offer fog lights so I fitted a combined fog/main beam that was semi recessed in the front nose cone , along with a universal splitter I made the bumper unique. Even now 20 cars on I am altering my new Tiguans bumper and improved that on my TT. Look forward to seeing it painted.

      It's more like a poor mans mod but with skills. I did a very similar thing a few years ago because I lacked money but if I had it I would buy the bumper instead. The funny part is that the car is still around and still looks good and doesn't have a rice vibe to it because it's an upgraded version of the original instead of a rice part.

    If you go onto eBay and search B5 A4 L Type Bumper Lip you could buy it for $105 and put it on the front of the car. it would probably look much better with the larger grill modification and help the bumper flow much better with the bodykit as it adds a bit of a flare to the lower portion of the front bumper.

    LOVE THE DIRECTION OF THE BUILD! Can’t wait to see the final product. I just actually cut my grill out of my bumper to clear my intercooler on my civic. Could you provide the link to the honeycomb abs plastic you got. I was about to use a chicken wire style mesh to cover the hole. But this turned out soo good. Almost factory! Also love how much you incorporate your little boy into the videos. My goal for the new year is to start a build Channel for my civic and my wife’s civic. And get my little boy who just turned three. Involved in it. Haven’t been a follower for too long. But I’m not subscribed to the notification squad and just binge watched all your videos. Keep up the A1 videos.

    That bumper looks way more agressive now! But I feel like it’s missing a lip/spoiler underneath, looks kinda naked. If you put a splitter or lip of some sort, it would make the car look lower, and also make that bumper look even more custom

  • @vociferonheraldofthewinter2284

    I've got an older Transit Connect van and I do love this little vehicle. One thing that I've noticed about the new model is how much more aggressive the nose looks. The hood is much higher and more square and the lower bumper does look more like this. I love this transformation and I'm really impressed by the difference, but I'm wondering if there's a way to raise the hood in the same way. Get that nose up. I'm thinking that a large air intake vent that's very wide might help with the illusion, but is there anything else that could work for that particular aspect?

    nice video, but try with steel or iron wire and 3 component fiber. you tinker thin steel slats of a shape that you want. with the carriers that puncture on the bumper. steel part of the bumper as a skeleton. over this, it disperses and spreads the fiber component as a patch and over it brushes the fiber and so in the layers. simply and not too expensive, and get the shape you want. it means using a steel wool for a temporary skeleton or even allowing the bumper to be full. You can also make a whole body kit
