Where are your headlights?

Are you going to remove the door handles, locks, mirrors and antenna?

I have a fiberglass front, the rear is the poly. the antenna opening is a battery cut-off switch. Leaving the other stuff on. headlights will be like these.

It would definately be worth the extra step & get a glass rear bumper to feather into the body like the front, otherwise will look inconsistent in the O/A feel once painted and you'll probably wish you had later down the road. Otherwise it looks great!
My 2¢.
