SIdes are definitely gonna need some work. And it would improve the look if you go on and shave the bumper lights.
Have to reserve my comments though till after its finished.

you're using a stock sunfire bumper, and im guessing the import fighter is urethane? what are you using to mold the two different materials together?

thats my girls car now, lol. i liked it better with the IF front IMO

Nice idea (I thought of this as well), however my concern would be cutting off all the support for the IF and relying solely on the bonding products to hold it on. It's one thing to bond two things together, but it's something completely different to force the entire weight of a heavy urethane bumper on a bond.

I wish you the best, however I would also caution on your plan of attack and would suggest something that could allow the bottom part of the bumper to retain some structural integrity that is independent of the bond.
