I do have glassing experience - read - I said I didn't have experience doing the bumper. It's not a question of "how do I glass" it's a question of what do I need to know to specifically do the bumper. I was wondering with things like mount points for the bumper, area's that are exposed to a lot of pressure (Ie., from the air going at highway speeds), and ways of preventing stress fractures. Perhaps I should have been more specific.

Without question there needs to be taken more into account when doing a bumper, than doing something for a center console or around a sub box. More than frenching in amps and crossovers... I've glassed parts for both my vehicle and two seperate vehicles, as well as for aircraft when I worked at the airfield. But the bumper of a daily driver seems to me to sit in a different catagory from all of these.

I just want to know what one needs to know when doing this specifically.
