1. Do the under carriage plastics still fit on well with the new front bumper?
2. With a 2" drop will it scratch alot compared to the stock bumper. The stock bumper already sits pretty low with the drop.
I was thinkin of getting that polyurethane blitz front so it wouldn't break.

I have the imported version and the bottom plastic did not reach. There was like a 2" gap and even more at the wheel. I have a 1.5" drop and I have scraped it 3 times already. Just be very careful on inclines and declines.

Do you have any pics of this imported front bumper you speak of. I never heard of this.

mine didnt reach on the bottom or the sides... we fiberglassed some extra pieces to it to extend the bottom out and to create a wall by the wheel so that i could screw the plastics in

We did the same thing that nccelica did. I had the body shop add some sheet metal so they could reach the plastic. mbautosport has a picture of both the imported version and the U.S. version. Here is the link to my pics with the Imported Version....a lot us think the imported version looks better than the U.S. version.

Look at the middle opening on the two. The opening on the imported version is wider than the U.S. version. Also the U.S. is curvier tho. We need to start a poll on which one looks better. The imported version, you have to get rid of your stock fog lights. They dont match up.

If you want side markers than that gonna have to be a custom job since neither of them have them.
