Octane bumper question

[jonasblack]

Can we still fit the stock fog lights with this front bumper? Also does anyone have pics of this bumper on a black Celi?
thanks

Nope.. the stock fogs won't fit.. had to sell mine.. or you can redrill and remount it to position it somehow.. the bumper fits kinda small.. i still like the way it looks mainly up front.. but its small too the point that I can't even fit the bumper with the safety foam on...

[jonasblack]

thanks. do you have pics of where exactly it fits small?

Mine had all sorts of problems...first and foremost - the overall quality sucked. Really cheap and thin fiberglass and hardly any gelcoating. You could actually see through some parts of it! Secondly, the top part near the hood didnt line up - there was about a half-inch or so gap (it varied in some areas) when the hood was closed (it looked like ass). Also - we had to remove the factory foam and metal bumper brace just to get it on. Not good since its there to protect against front impacts. And last but not least - the sides didnt line up at all. By sides I am referring to the area right up by the fenders by the headlights. One side was too short and the other side was mis-shaped and had a 1/4 inch gap. Look absolutely horrid. :shocked

Basically, we wasted an entire day trying to get this thing to fit, and it just would'nt work. We cut and sanded on it as much as we could, but I finally had to face the fact that it was a crappy mold and I got ripped big time. I said "fuk it" and got a pre-painted WW kit. Popped on like a dream compared to the sh!tty fOctane bumper. :rolleyes:

BTW - Beware of www.importrenz.com!!! :pissed

One of our Hawaii owners just got his a little while ago. It's the worst fitting bumper I've ever seen in all the time I've been into modding imports. Doesn't fit worth of crap, there's gaps everywhere, and it's already developed major cracks in about a month of use... he had duct tape holding it together. Nice concept, but too bad it was poorly executed. My advice, get something else or you'll be sorry. Right now he's just looking to trade for a stock white bumper, if you're really interested. Try and hit us up in the Hawaii forum.

Damn! Sounds like it's a sh!tty kit. Thanks guys I guess I won't be buying that from MBautosport then. Now I need to figure out what front will look good with the R2 sides and Blitz rear. Any suggestions?:)
