50245, Tacoman and I have designed a rear bumper...comments please!!

Tacoman deserves most of the credit as he designed most of it, i just touched it up to add my ideas. I forget who's car he used, but thank you for the image! lol...do you guys like it? It would be a bolt on so we don't have to replace the entire rear bumper. He would be the one creating the bumper in person, i have no idea how to do that. I think it looks great and he did a great job designing it. It would have a space between to add mesh (like i have done in the picture), or could be let alone. I know this would work with the 95-96 style but this is the only pic of a rear eclipse bumper we could find, so i don't know if the 97-99 styles would work since they are different. It might, but that would be up to Tacoman. Opinions/comments please? Thanks guys!!

Since you want opinions..........I does look like the Blitz. I also like the reverse lights in the stock location.

I think just redesigning the stock a little and make it so it has a cutout for dual exhaust and remove the indentions on the bottom would look nice. Also, I would love to have some reverse lights that held some 100W 9005/6 or H-4 bulbs, so the asshole in the rearveiw. Just my opinion. Good work though.

How are you gonna make this a bolt on if you are relocating the rear lights and keeping the smooth lines of the rear bumper? Just curious as the one in the picture looks like it would replace the entire bumper.

Yes, I know that it is a 97-99 bumper. This was originally going to go for the 95-96 rear bumpers, as I found an Eclipse one locally, I just surfed the forum and just looked for a rear bumper real quick, and this was the first one that I found, so I used this.

Yeah, I didn't want to conceal whose it is, I don't want to invade there privacy and what not. Chrysler Kid is right, it is 9D9's.

What I just said doesn't really make sense, but hopefully you know what I am talking about. :-)..

BTW, show me some pics of the diffusers.

And yeah, I'll try to redesign it alittle. Keep in mind that this should be "bolt-on", and not too crazy, kept clean, and easy to put on.

I wanna play too! It's a hack job though. The lower diffuser is really the center tail section off a McLaren F1, the carbon fiber around the Lamborghini Murcielago tailights is sampled from a Zonda something, and the exhaust is off a Lotus Elise. :P

Tasty, but FAR from bolt on. Those pieces probably cost more than the car! :thumbsup

i think the reverse lights should be moved outward like the OEM 97-99 rear bumper.
by the way DR1665...those tails are hot!!

make that rear and pay me 5% for each one sold. ;)
I think it's too much like the blitz. I don't really like any rears out there. I dunno what I'm looking for tho. I like the combat rear except for the huge bare space at the top part above the tag. Maybe change the combat rear some and do something extra? Something like this would be kewl. Instead of coming all up in the center tho, connect it and use mesh maybe? Or something instead of seeing all up under the car. It's oogly under there.
