Front Bumper and Wiring.




These past couple of days I spent my time in class cutting poleaxe glass to fit in the front bumper to act as air damns. I got the measurement of the hole that was going to be covered by tracing it onto cardboard then cutting the cardboard to size and then transferring that to the poleaxe glass sheet. The first couple that I did weren't great but it got way easier as I did more. After getting them cut to size we used a black silicone seam sealer to hold them in place and make it an air tight fit.The next day I spray painted the glass so that it was a clean look and wasn't blotchy. As you can see above the painters tape gave me a straight edge that I had to follow so that it had the best and cleanest look possible.  
After that I worked on finding the bad connection in the front left hand light. It ended up just being a bad connection with the ground connector so I got it fixed up pretty quick. I got all the wiring re wrapped and put back in the plastic tubing to make sure that it wouldn't come apart over time with weather wear.
