    New bumper + FMIC on

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Got the new bumper and FMIC on today, that was a project! The bumper is a Seidl RS4 bumper, and an ebay FMIC core size 28x9x2.75. To start with we all know ebay fmic sucks when you put it on haha, and fiberglass bumpers suck even more. Well this bumper fit really well, but had absolutely no where to mount it, I had to drill into the fenders from underneath the side of the bumper. Anyway, here it is. The bumper needs fresh paint but my bumper got fed up the other night when my coolant line to my turbo got a hole in it somehow??? and I had to pull off the to side of the road and ended up in a ditch. I needed to put something on so why not do it all at once? BTW the bumper only need minor trimming, same for the support, took about an 1 1/2" deep and high out of it. I know the cold side piping is crooked as hell, and the middle sags. It started raining so I gave up for the day. All that white dusty crap is fiberglass form the trimming that was done. Let me know what you guys think.

    Yeah, that is next on the list once I get my ABT sides and rear painted next week, I'll most likely be anodizing all of that mess behind there black.

    I have HID's 8000k actually, my lights are not on, that is the camera flash haha. As fr as the openings on the bumper, I like the front, I am not to big on the side "vents" which will be filled in next week before I go get some fresh paint on it.

    good call on getting rid of the side vents it looks much cleaner without them

    I take it you routed the hot side pipe over the A/C lines? What piping kit did you use?
