msupra1 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) My car Is at the shop right now getting some other paint work done. Bumper has cracked paint and some chips due to poor prep work from the previous painter. It's a fiberglass replica Ridox. Fitment is pretty good but where it meets the hood it sits a bit lower with a slight gap, which is a bit annoying since I'm picky about fitment. It can be improved if I decide to have it painted. I can't justify getting a new Ridox right now, even the Shine due to cost. I have some other priority things to do on the car first. So I can either go OEM or keep this bumper. I do love the look of Ridox a lot but also keeping in mind it's a street car so I find it bottoming out sometimes. If I went OEM it would be with MVP style lip, I attached a photo of my previous Supra that had this. Also I'm missing the crash bar. I'm assuming the bumper didn't fit with it, bumper came with the car from Japan. Does the front bar help stiffen the chassis flex when during? I recall reading this somewhere. If it's pretty important to have looks like I'll need to part with the bumper. Thoughts? I don't know what to do :/ photo of my supra, additionally to the what it looks now it will have a diffuser and ganador mirrors. photo of my previous supra and before those this was my first one with Top Secret II bumper, I liked it a lot also. Might be hard to find though. Edited October 22, 2013 by msupra1 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msupra1 Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) i likes all of them I want to have an aggressive look to the car. I go no problem going OEM bumper but I'm just not sure if it looks too tame. / also seems like most people go from OEM to Ridox not the other way around. I'm just not sure if it's a downgrades in looks :/ Edited October 22, 2013 by msupra1 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
