That seemless welded rear looks really good. Definitely the way to go if you're respraying the car anyway.

 

I finally finished my new rear bumper. More or less happy with it apart from the crappy paint matching job! It's a foam mold i made and then glassed with 3 bolts mounting it across the back and the side little bits liquid nails'd. Ended up using a bit more bog then i would have liked but o well. I had to angle grind off a little bit of the rear panel which stuck out too far, otherwise not too much modification to the car was necessary once the stock bumper was removed.

 

It seems my car is pretty much the red 2+2 version of that black one, both have shaved rear bumpers and same front air dam. I do have a little bit of two seater envy however...

Here's the smooth look on a Zed rear end.

I moulded a fibreglass rear bumper to the body trying to hold the traditional shape, then smoothed over some holes and filled in the rear light surrounds to get rid of the silver bits that harbor the grime.
