    How to fix a wavy bumper trim?

    Hi guys, I have a few problems with my Dolphin ..
    The fron bumper trim is a little wavy, how can I fix it?

    the corners are just .. wrong
    I tried a heat gun with no effect at all.

                  I know John (forcedfirebird) used a heat gun...

                  no offense, maybe it's your method?

                      I think it depends in the actual condition of the bumper trim material.

                      So... anyone have a front set in sale for a 325 86? without those waves :P

                          Remove them, and beat them to hell until they are straight. There is a thin metal bar that is inside the plastic. Don't quote me on that, but that's how they are with my 6.
