im doing this for my college project! im jus gettin an old corsa bumper and moulding things onto it/ making cutouts with fibre glass, smoothing it with filler etc, then covering it in releasing agent and making a mould from that with LOTS of fibre glass and supportive beams. Then obviously making the proper bumper from the mould.

Caution.......

The standard bumper is plastic and therefore will flex, so ensure if your going to use filler that you restrict the flexability of the Std one.
