Re: Blitz Font Bumper
Well why don't you fit it? Every kit is usually different from different manufacturers and will fit either well or poorly. Ideally it'll just bolt up.

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
At the very least you'll have to drill new install holes and sand it up. probably have to trim some edges. it will be like installing the first one. it's new... the car hasn't changed. all the modifications for fitment were done to your old bumper... the new one will need all the same stuff. Hopefully you don't run into any fitment issues. Good luck

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
While were all talking about body kits and stuff. I was wondering which front bumper would be good that doesnt scrape too bad. My stock front bumper is falling apart and i need a new one. I want one that is about the same height as the stock one. Any suggestions on what kind i should buy?

how is your bumper fallin apart? You dont be careful when you drive or something. I got a stock bumper and my car is lowered 2 1/2 to 3 inches and i barely scrape cause i pay attention.

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
No I do pay attention, but when i boat the car the front bumper was already falling apart. When i say falling apart, i mean the bottom is cracked and it sags down some. It looks stupid. And the streets are hell where i live.

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
yeah same...here streets are terrible. The best thing to do is to get a stock bumper and get a fiberglass/urethane/carbonfiber lip. You could even cut the sagging bit off and attach a lip. That should cover the damage up.

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
My old bumper was scraped up also. But mine did not sag. Don't you have a lower retainer on the bumper that should keep it from sagging at all.

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
But if you but a lip on, wouldn't it make the front end lower? I dont know much about front lips so. And also where can i find a good front lip?
What do you mean a lower retainer? do you mean the little metal thing that holds it up? if your talking about that, mine is all bent and messed up. I dont know what the previous owner hit!!! |

Re: Blitz Font Bumper
Yes it is a metal strip that goes along the bumper on the bottom.
