my car goes in to the shop and i told them to hold off on ordering a stock rear bumper. My car is silverstone, so that color would be nice, but i will have it repainted if necessary. Id like a full kit that is good fitiment and not extremly aggressive. I'm thinking about the Cwest, but im not sure if i like it. If you have any up for sale, please post pics.

who makes rear bumper body kits?

 

Since you have a tight schedule, JDM is out of the question..... so there are the knock-offs. Tims2K has GP sports sides. Rears... I would go with VeilSide version1 (ask Jeff at evolution....evos2000) or my04.

 

who makes actual rear bumpers? not addons but the whole thing

 

The only 2 i know of are Viper (an Ebay kit) and Garage Defend (JDM).

 

ASM, Mugen,Webersports

 

I kind of like the Viper kit. Does anyone know about fitiment issues? If there are issues, how easy are they to fix? Also, how hard are these fiberglass kits to crack? Urethane flex's while fiberglass cracks and spreads, right? With a whole front bumper being fiberglass, how high is the danger. The site that sells the kit also sales a "muse" kit that includes the viper rear but a mugen style urethane lip, would that be a smarter choice? I dont have to replace the front bumper, im assuming less work goes in to adding a lip.


do any retailers on here stock that kit, or a similar?

 

Vash has the Viper kit. IMO, for what it is worth, I like Urethane for front....especially if you are planning on going on aggressive drives.

 

i think Urethane is smarter in the front too, the more i think about it. Do you know where any decent pictures of the viper kit are? I searched for pics of Vash's car, but couldnt find any. All of the ones at the site are covered in words.

 

I have a new in box garage defend rear bumper..... straight from japan... its not painted... here is a pic of what it looks like
