RS4 Bumper smoothening ... like PKMode and others
So I'm going to try and teach myself some bodywork. I have a cracked RS4 bumper I sort of stole from another member on this forum (dean16v) and I wanted to smoothen and fill in the washer nozzles which should be pretty easy ... and I want to fill in the front euro plate recessed area ... how should I do it? I'm thinking fiberglass to build up the recessed area, and then plastic filler to smooth it out.
I'm worried about getting tapped on my bumper by another car parallel parking ... will it just crack immediately? do you think it will have any flex?
I don't feel like giving it to a bodyshop and paying big$$ to do such a narcisstic and pointless mod to a car

that was my biggest concern as well...
nobody gave me a straight answer... but more importantly, id rather have the euro tub in the front to retain the oem look... just my opinion though.

Pkmode's RS4 bumper with plate delete looks schweet! I have seen it in person...
He did it himself, I think he will chime in. He did not delete the washers. I think no plate and no washers would be the hotness!!
