Title: Rear Bumper Extensions
Post by: Anonymous on October 22, 2003, 13:59
I have the rear bumper extensions on my car, haven't seen anyone else with them and was wondering, do you all hate them?

Anyway here is a pic for you to look at:

Personally I like them but only when a twin exit exhaust is fitted.  

I've now got rear mudflaps so they wouldn't fit my car but I would have definitely bought a set otherwise.

i prefer the look of a full bumper mod, like the msd or similar, rather than the 2 spats - they just look a bit obviously stuck on to me...

mind you, from the viewpoint of maknig the exhausts look part of the car, rather than slung underneath, anything looks better than stock!!

Not everyone hates them, I know one person with them   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:    s:wink: :wink: s:wink:   Each to their own, if you like them thats all that matters.

I think there called 'Splats' there was a chap selling some thro the club a while ago he also had the side skirts to match if your interested PM me. I will forward his e-mail to you.

Think when i get the extensions smoothed and blended into bumper (next job) they'll look better than that IMHO have to wait and see :p

Now the question is:

Do i reply & risk digging further or do i let it go & leave it open to interpretation  s:?: :?: s:?:  

Now the decision is:

To reply........I agree with Craig that the rear of my 2 is special

Think that clears it up safely  s:!: :!: s:!:          s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
