E30 Cabrio Rear Plastic Bumper Conversion

I don't know if anyone really cares about my cabrio but here is the rear conversion anyway....

First,
removing the Diving Board bumpers, check the "Not at the Fest" thread for more info.... :shock:

Got it removed,
re-sprayed the lower area with Plasti-Dip,
the same stuff you use to do the at home Shadowline Trim with...
also plugged the old trim mounting holes with new bolts, rubber washers and spot painted them with the Dip to seal and hide them...

The finished product....
Not bad really,
when I repaint the car I will do a little more "fitting", weld in a latter model rear valance and abit more finish work....

I installed a TMS Plate Surround cuz it really needed something there....

Yes, I need a new rear Roundel too...

No, I didn't hide my tag so no one steal my car OK? :evil:

that was it,
next days off I am doing the front and spraying the rockers to sharpen them up abit...
