I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering how your nose chop is holding up? Is there any cracking or seperation? Im trying to decide what the best materials are to do my nose chop.

Held up just fine until I was rear ended and pushed into the car in front of me..then it broke lol. Car was totaled in January.

Thanks--RR is one of the few non-clear coated colors the evo came in, makes it super easy to polish. Just have to keep up with it otherwise it oxidizes and turns a nice pastel pink lol

Damn sorry to hear =( Love the way it looked though, definitely something to consider when I venture into the evo world in the near future!

My personal favorite is not having those evo 9 fog light holes near the middle of the bumper. Anyway, hope you find your way back into an evo, sounds like you need another.

Looked awesome! Sorry to hear about your car, must've really sucked.

I'm thinking about doing the nose chop to mine as well.

I used a plastic welder to mold my piece in and then fiber glassed the underneath and used duraflex bondo on top. Lots of sanding but no cracks etc for over a year now and I bottom out a couple times kind of hard. Just don't use regular bondo since that may crack... also the least amount is better..
