6133, Drift Front or New Stock Front?? Posted by eclipse804, Jun-30-01 04:25 PM
Hey all, I just found out I can get a hookup on the drift front bumper for about 240. Should I get that bumper, or get another stock bumper (mine is dented). I really don't feel like spending much money on another front bumper, but I don't know if its worth it to try to buy another stock bumper. If I get the drift, I wouldn't drive it all the time with it on since it sticks out a lot in front. I'd drive with my current slightly dented stock one...
SOCAL - anyone in socal have a used stock 97-99 bumper they are getting rid of? ANYONE WANT TO BUY MY CAR?? I'm gonna put it up for sale soon and if no one wants it right away, I'll keep it...otherwise, I'm looking for around 15k (blue book is 14,500) as is...with aem cold air intake, hotshot headers, aem cam gears, ported head, milled head, stainless steel valves, 5-angle valve job, timing belt changed under 1k miles ago...If I can sell it, I'd be getting a gs-t and throwing on the kit on that car (I'm hoping I can find one with body and paint damage since I can get it fixed easily at our shop).

If your stock front is dented, try leaving it in the sun a while. I heard this pops it back out. One of my friends had a bicycle rider jump out in front of him. Dented the shit out of his front. Next day, he was gonna order a new front, went outside and it had popped out.

hehe mine has been dented for over a year. I've parked it outside all day in the sun. Basically, someone backed into it real hard, dented my fender too. It's not a noticable dent because a whole large section of the bumper is dented in, not just like a small circle...

LAST EDITED ON 01-Jul-01 AT 08:29 PM (PST)Get the GST. I say go with the drift bumper or VIS modified Skline style.
Hook me up with your Venom bumper and some of your engine mods before you sell it.

Oh BTW, the VENOM FRONT IS GOING TO BE PRODUCED. It is back at the shop, and it will take a bit of work to modify (I don't have the time to do it), and we are sending it to a different manufacturer this time. They say it will take a couple months, but I'll be happy if it comes by the end of the year. So basically, I'm thinking about the drift, or a used stock one for now to paint along with the rest of my kit. It should all be painted within a month if I get the time to do all the bondo and prep work...

selling anything before you sell your car? that would be good if you did, at least for whoever bought it, if so, what do you have?
