    JDM Rear bumper install - Fixing body lines

    Just a quickie post, I installed a JDM rear bumper on my 2000 legacy wagon and anybody who's done this will know what I mean when I say that the rear wheel arch body lines don't match. I've seen a few cars run this way but I didn't like it.

    So, Here is the bumper when first offered up to the car:



    Using two part bumper repair plastic epoxy, we filled in the areas of the bumper and reshaped to match the cars body lines:



    Sand, and repaint, and it looks factory:
