Yeah finally almost done. It's just that they have so many projects to complete, so this has taken much longer than expected.

The two bumpers. One is already on your car, the other is unpainted.

Were you just a tester for their fitment?

Oh okay, like the post stated the painted version on my car that is seen on jtuned.com is the original mold meaning it is the "kit" that they use to reproduce the production kits (the unpainted one I have in the later pics).

Jtuned.com = original mold to make duplicates
Unpainted version = duplicate of mold

I helped them design this kit, although everything was not executed they way that I wanted it came pretty close considering the time table we had.
