1*2 front bumpers with standard wings

[Paul.]

im sorry for putting this up but i have been using the search button to try n find some of these pics but i have no patience. This isnt for me btw so any help would be great. Oh and loads of pics

 

[Greeny.]

The bumper wont fit without the sport wings will it?

 

[Paul.]

yes mate. i know dutty_112 has done this and R8 FTW iirc. But anybody else??? Just looking for pics

 

[Cro]

It can be heat molded round to fit perfectly like Has did but it cost a fortune, it can be bodged with some silicon i believe but not perfect

 

[Beef-Mc]

Yes it can be done, but requires additional bending to fit which usually requires a body shop to do it.

Search for Jamie/r8 ftw

 

[Paul.]

Hmmm. can this be done with ph1 bumpers?

 

[fUbAr]

Hmmm. can this be done with ph1 bumpers?

no, they really are a completely different shape and fitment. you need the wings with the Ph1

i suggest just going the whole way and buying the wings to do it properly. from a scrappy they wont cost an arm and a leg either. im going to look into it once ive had my car on the road for a bit.

yeah but then you have to buy official renault sport side skirts which are more expensive than aftermarket ones, and i was told buy a bodyshop that they would have to paint the bonnet to blend the wings in, not to mention having to paint the wings themselves.
if you have a car the same colour as the sport parts then fair enough but if you need to get everything repainted it starts getting expensive.

im going down the modifying the front bumper with standard wings and aftermarket skirts look similar to jamies car

Bending?where do people get these ideas from.It just needs cutting at the sides.

 

[Jungle_Jim]

^^ yep and new holes drilled in the mounts to pull it in tighter

Don't do it it looks s**t unless you spend a lot of time/money on it, if your going to do a rep do it properly get some wings.
