Yes, however slowly. Here is the beginning of the end cap fabrication. It looks pretty darn rough now, but with bondo, spot putty, I think I can make it look pretty good - well, acceptable anyway.

Open end before cap install.



Rough shaping before sanding and getting the contours as close as possible...



End cap attached. I used some 'super strong' gel super glue to attach the end cap. Then filled in behind with expanding foam. Still have to wait for the foam to dry before removing the screw and also have to fill the two holes. I'll drill and screw the end cap into the bumper after it's fully set. Then, do the body work.



I'll use a toolable and paintable caulk or seam sealer to close up the top crack where the lip meets the bumper

First rough bondo. Needs some serious shaping. Ran out of 80 grit and sliced my finger open with the utility knife, so will stop for a day or so.



Driver's side now. Expandable foam does a great job adhering the lip to the car. Will fabricate the end cap soon.









Final sanding tomorrow. Apply caulk along top. Prime, sand, base coat and clear coat.
