    Man, you really can't catch a break with bumpers lately. Always amazed by your work.

    Did you fill in the European side indicator on the fender? Wow, I would have kept that if so and actually fit the indicators.

    We ended up just going with a new bumper to much wasted time trying to salvage used ones.

    No only one fender has it but were going to drill out the others to match and keep it euro style.

    Ordered a new bumper and primed body in Glasurit 1006-26 polyester primer with a Sata 100 B P poly gun. The panels were pre cleaned using Glasurit 541 silicone and tar remover. Its a solvent based cleaner that dissolves wax, silicone, grease, road road, and oils.

    The new bumper is an aftermarket piece? If so were you pleased with the quality?

    And the plan it seems is to run euro front side markers in the fender, (and none in the front bumper) but keep the side markers in the rear bumper?

    Thanks for all the pics!

    Braden, did all model years of the F355 come from the factory with basecoat/clearcoat or were some single stage?

    It was OEM euro spec, as you can see it comes in needing minor body work.

    Yes were removing all the side markers and going euro style.

    Thank you!
