drift_bear Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) As the title says im thinking about getting a new front bumper for my supe, it currently has the do-luck and with the ammount of speed bumps and etc that are popping up everywhere im getting fed up of having to repair it. i no what you will be thinking and that is slow down over speed bumps, but i already am at a crawling speed for going over and actually stop completely and then go as slow as i can to get over it. The question is, what type of facelift front bumper will go well with the veilside skirts, trial rear and my abflug bonnet? OR whats the best way to protect my do-luck front fron any further damage from speed bumps? WITHOUT moving lol Edited July 14, 2011 by drift_bear (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkddav3 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 i think my front its usualy okay with speed bumps but stock would be most practical oh and its a top secret type one btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 List the 2 or 3 aftermarket bumpers (excluding the do-luck obviously) that you like the best and see what feedback people have regarding how low they are etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cje001 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 My front is ok with speed bumps, catches a little but only a tiny bit. Nearly got stuck on a multi story car park the other day, a definite no-no! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Oh the joys of having a stock-bodied Supra. Don't even have to think about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they stock it or is it custom made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 My Veilside front is hanging lower everyday. Multi story car parks are a killer. When I asked these sorts of questions Stillen came up as best aftermarket clearance ( got a group buy up for them), although Stock looks to have much much better clearance.

It was custom, all you need is a bug paper and your bumper placed on top drawn around. It cost me 320 at the time but it is well worth every penny as it takes all the damage and does a good job.
