Rob_Mitchell Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 mine aint too bad over speed bumps to be honest, well no scraps yet fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 hmm. I am undecided about bumpers. I like them, but don't think they would get over speed bumps near me in london. Standard with active spoiler has best of both, looks good with the lip down, lip is up when you go over speed bumps. Unless you spend a lot and get a lift for the front like lambos have, push a button and jack up for speedbumps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball87 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 My bumper is ok over speed bumps its the dips in the roads that catch it! Having problems refitting it atmo! I have got one of those half cages i will be selling it soon if anyone is intersted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I like the black centre myself although not much point getting it with a black car. Only trouble I have had so far is coming out of the car park at my local chinese takeaway, shame as the chicken fried rice is very tasty, at least I cant eat as much crap now.

Lbm Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Love that car (Get that bumper sorted!) Absolutely. I'll probably have to have the height adjusted, otherwise it'll be a re-curring problem I must get off my backside and get down to WIM in Chesham.

I was very impressed with the work they had done on your bumper as the before pics were not very impressive. Iwas dropping off my Greddy Lip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwas dropping off my Greddy Lip Thanks Bradzt,Im going to recommend he joins the forums,he could do a lot of business with the scottish lads...I may get the supra back tomorrow so will maybe see yours.The only thing wrong is a little chrome flaking in the headlamp rings,apart from that its very good for a 14 year old car.

SPG Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I wont be dropping my Supra off till next week when she goes for a full respray in either the original Supra black or BMW carbon black. I dropped off my OEM skirts and spats and also my Greddy Lip so she should be looking rather nice once complete. Your Bumper was being finished off whilst i was their so im guessing its going for a spray tomorro as i was their from 5pm to 6.10pm. Just a quick question for you though mate, i noticed that you left the bump or raised section in the middle of the nose cone and wondered if you were going to have it flattened out as it would look more smooth. I mentioned this to Shahan but i dunno if you were thinking of doing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned this to Shahan but i dunno if you were thinking of doing it? If you mean the crease in the centre? I kinda like that.Shahan asked if i wanted it smoothed but thats how its supposed to be I guess....The supra black colour is a nice rich black..Id keep that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrastang Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 TBh i never noticed the bump in the middle...if its good enough for chingys car it most certainly is for my humble n/a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 No worries i thought i would mention it just in case you overlooked it. Some people keep it and some remove it, if you are happy then its all good. I think i will be keeping the original 202 Black but something different would be nice too.

Scott Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Bump in the middle doesn't go with the stock bonnet IMO. The crease just stops at the bonnet, no flow at all. Had mine smoothed to combat it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the same, I went for Nissan Obsedian Black (same black as the R35). Has a little bit of metalic flake to it but not anywhere near as much as most metalic paints.
