cheap bumper

[pegliobaglio]

Hey guys had a run in with a rabbit on a 50 mph road on my way home and my bumper is pretty mashed,any ideas where I can get a cheap bumper from.
Might try to fiberglass it but still seems like a good opportunity to try a new look for a bit lol

Could see how much Martin from Carbonkit wants for the vertex - failing that, epr do very cheap kits for an apparent slight trade off on fitment, but the ones I have seen fitted ok

 

[pegliobaglio]

Cheers buddy,vertex front is nice but fancy something a little different.
As you say I guess the trade off will be the fitment/quality!
Will see what's about and assess the options. Bloody wabbit!!!! Lol

I have found a c west front bumper really cheap,can anyone tell me if I need wide front fenders to run this bumper? Any pics also would be useful,without fenders as I have a few pics with already

 

[pegliobaglio]

still hare on it where it hit lol
excuse for a new bumper anyways!!

moral of the story is beware the hare!!

 

[Lloydy]

Damn rabbits! I've had countless near misses down in the sticks of west wales

 

[pegliobaglio]

It run onto the grass then thought it would be funny to jump into my bumper!
Gotta look on the bright side I wanted to change the kit anyways

The vertex front from carbonkit fits amazingly well.

You could have my uras front for mega cheap.

There's someone on eBay in Ireland selling a few s15 front bumpers in different designs for £100 delivered.

 

[pegliobaglio]

Thing is I have seen a few with the vertex now so wanna go a different route even though I love it!!!
What uras kit do you have? I have Sourced a replica c west front for 120 delivered which is bargains tbf

 

[DeanS15]

I have to be honest and say I can't see the c-west sitting well with the rest of the kit... Uras would work perfectly with it though, either that or origin aggressive but thier not cheap mate....

 

[pegliobaglio]

Yeah I have to agree think I wuld need to change at least the skirts to make it look decent.
Still looking about atm even if the c west just goes on for a bit whilst I have my bumpEr repaired /sprayed.
Would look inot other kits but have to service insure and tax my type r next month so looking for a quick fix tbh

 

[Martin]

Uras type s. See my members topic for pics. I personally don't like it but each to their own.

 

[pegliobaglio]

Cool man will check it out!

 

[pegliobaglio]

someone help make my mind up please!!i have found 2 bumpers i like they are the same price just a question of taste i guess
one i havent seen on a 15 before the pic i have is on a 13.5 looks nice though and isnt too different to my bumper just with a few more vents in


or the c west bumper

Love the C-West Chris ^^


But don't you need widearches and the complete kit if you were to decide on this? Expensive!! :wack:

 

[pegliobaglio]

I have seen one fitted with out wide arches with just vertex sideskirts and rear bumper and looks sweet! I have apic will try up load it later on!
Think I am gonna go for it!!!!!!!!!

 

[LuPix_S15]

Cool - I love that front bumper... if I could have a fresh S15 to work on and start over again I would have gone for the entire C-West wide arch goodies lol

 

[pegliobaglio]

Yeah it does look nice,I came very close to buying the new vertex edge kit but I have been put off widebodies after seeing a few,cracks and warped arches,think I will keep as much metal involved as possible!!
