Alright I have a question where can I get a front bumper like this, I'm digging it, does anyone know where else I can find stuff like that, Korean shit!!! lol. I think out there they might have some pretty sick crap, over in the states its too ricey for my taste, I was thinking about selling the car but I might have a job soon so I think I might keep her, especially after seeing this picture, with some aggressive offset wheels, rolled fenders and stretched tires, slammed I think the car would look amazing

im gonna guess thats a one of a kind. If you look at it and the stocker behind it they cut the lower half of the factory bumper off and prob fabbed one out of fiberglass from thre down . Good luck finding one to buy . You would have better luck finding an ebay bumper with that bottom half and chopping it and fitting it to the stock bumper like they kind of did. Then do some bondo-ing around the seems to smooth it out for it to look similar.

That's just a stock bumper with some work done to it. Maybe a lip, but I doubt it.

Looks okay, but there are far better kits available.

yeah i was just about to say i looked all over for that post-...

it was a "getting interest" post that someone made.

i remember people were complaining that because of the "undertray" it would make it difficult to do oil changes.

if you are buying that kind of bumper, most people have those quick disconnects that you can a panel off in seconds.

Stocker: I'd imagine that they do it so if a lens breaks it is less likely to shatter and drop all over the track

tape is used for a lot of reasons, mainly to prevent damage from rocks (which there shouldn't be any if the sweepers did there job)
