nickyboy Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 There's lots to read about Bomex originals not making the grade these days so make sure you read this when deciding whether to go for original or replica - think it's on the US forum.

Lucifer Posted January 3, 2006 Author Share Posted January 3, 2006 I know what you mean, I want one thats fits in all the stock positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black cat Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 a good body shop will fit well but will charge you so you may aswell get more expensive one that doesnt need quite as much work. that what i was told any way cos i saw a bomex on ebay for 150 quid.

Lucifer Posted January 3, 2006 Author Share Posted January 3, 2006 Im sure I can manage a bumper fitment...just I was after one that extents under properly to the try and allows fixings for the inner arch panels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikkyB Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 If this is for the 200mph+ attempt Supra? Surely it would be better to keep the original, maybe with some modifications as it has been flow tested etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted January 3, 2006 Author Share Posted January 3, 2006 Na for that it will be stock all the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 That bumper doesn't exactly offer much in the way of chanelling the air and focusing it on the points you want it to. The beauty of the stock design is how it channels air to where you want it (filter, SMIC, brakes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted January 3, 2006 Author Share Posted January 3, 2006 So true. and its a good fit. Im thinking more about keeping it and just putting a lip on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-Dupra Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 That front bumper on the blue one is terrible IMO, well OTT ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub_Culture Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 For what it's worth, I had an original Bomex bumper on my RX7. And the fitment was utter crap. Took a lot of adjusting to get it looking nice. Goes to show that even the big names can still make mistakes. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
