niiice, bout time someone bites

kersh4w 05-13-2009 09:55 PM

looks good man. did you get the fogs that come with it? or can you just buy 09 fogs at the dealership?

Rotr8 05-13-2009 10:01 PM

no, no fogs come with it,,, They are $400+ from the dealership,,, so those will have to wait,,,,
I so have, however, the non-fog light trim... and I modded those too,,,

A pre-warning to all those who plan on buying this bumper, you need on of the ohter formentioned trim pieces, there are integrated hard mounts built into the bumper,,,

blackenedwings 05-13-2009 10:13 PM

This is because the bumper bar is right behind it, I plan on opening that up further so that it rids itself of that overhang,,,
the Z06 inpired inlet will be functional with an underhood element that will carry the air into the engine bay,,, this may have to wait til I get my hood in, And that will be a one off too...

ooo I like that Idea, I would be in there twice, once with this and then for my KS AutoBurnout Type II, yup it was the first, even before they started advertising it...
4 yrs ago when I first ordered the Type I KS Auto contacted me and told me that they were about to release a new version and was wondering if I wanted to be the first to get it at no additional cost, at the the time they didnt have pics or anything, but they reassured me that it looked great.. And thus the Type II...

jsjjr 05-14-2009 07:32 AM

Wow, nice bumper. It's gonna look awesome once it's on..

syntheticdarkness 05-14-2009 07:32 AM

Gonna look great. Congrats, and can't wait to see it on the car after you mod the bumper.

Nah, its grown on me. I actually don't mind it at all... the silver sets off the wheels and looks very aggressive. I may get it powder coated sometime down the road if I change my mind, but I'm focused on getting the turbo in and tuned right now.

Ross_Dawg 05-14-2009 08:49 AM

Hmm... mixed feelings on the z06 inlet

Its a plus that it's actually functional though :icon_tup:
