i think it might look ok if it weren't the clash of contrast, matt black and dull plastic lighting

I think it's trying really hard to be a Porsche.. so why not buy a cheap Boxster?

Isn't that just a new Porsche cayman front bumper? Lol

I like the lines of the standard car. The wheels do look dated and dont fill the arches, but apart from those and a TRD boot spoiler, my spare cash is going in the GTR fund.

Bumper looks more R8 than porsche to me. Quite like it but hate the Matt black look.

I actually think its okay, certainly better than a lot of the kits out there. Wouldn't last two minutes round here, with the humps in the roads. s;) ;) s;)
These things are also very colour dependant and matt black doesn't do it for me I'm afraid. In a different colour, say red, it might look good.
Just my opinion of course, I stay away from bodykits these days, its less of a bother without one and I don't get the road rage idiots bothering me now!

Looks like its trying to be a porsche on a stand at a car show. I don't mind the Matt black / bright orange paintwork if I look at it like that.

Bumper and side skirts are quite nice in my opinion but I agree probably no use over here with the speed bumps and numerous potholes everywhere!

Love it !! specially the matt black paint.

I love the look, takes away the stock look which i like but as an individual i think its the bees knees.

I quite like it... The orange stripe ties it in nicely with the rest of the car.
Also quite like the LED strips...    s:oops: :oops: s:oops:

I like it too. Can they be purchased, if so who from?
Title: Re: What do you think about this bumper?
Post by: Mightyquin on September 2, 2012, 22:31
No likey.

It makes the front end look too 'heavy' and upsets the proportions. Toyota got the design of the roadster pretty spot on IMHO, most mods I've seen so far just spoil it.

I seen this bumper before and I posted it here:  l viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1344&start=60 (http://www.mr2roc.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1344&start=60) l  
Why does the one installed the holes looks more closed up than this one? Personally I don't like those big hole openings.

Extended nose length looks great... The cutouts are a little marmite.

The Top Secret / Rioch Racing bumper would provide a softer alternative

Sorry to drag up an old thread, been mooching through older posts as I'm bored. Does anyone actually know who makes this bumper??? Cheers

I think if you're going to go through the effort of buying specific bumpers and everything you'd be nuts not to consider going the whole hog and getting the Gembella one... it has to be my favorite!
Title: Re: What do you think about this bumper?
Post by: ColleyV8 on January 12, 2017, 11:30
There is a company in the UK that are now promoting the gemballa kit for the MR2 I noticed last month

I agree the interior looks awful but I do like the back end...it looks really cool...probably doesn't need the spoiler in my opinion.

Yes, I've been thinking about a roof cover for when it's down in the summer all the time, I'll be interested to see what you think of the build and fit when you get it.  s:) :) s:)
