More bad luck..
Well it seems as if my Mugen SS front bumper likes accidents. Therefore last night I believe will be the last time I actually will have this bumper. I hit a huge piece of steel going 70 mph on H1. Anyway the bumper pretty much exploded. Today the adjuster looks at it and issues me a check. Hopefully things work out. So now its time for a new front bumper. Any ideas? I was thinking something cheap. Stock 04 and Mugen lip? What do you guys think? I am done with the SS. For some reason my friend thinks he can fix it but IMO its worthless because he is just going to add weight to it and any little flex will crack it again.

Ohhhh....sorry to hear about that.
I really want this piece and am disheartened to hear about the bumper 'exploding' like you say.
Do you happen to have any pictures of what it looks like? I'd be interested in seeing how the cover holds up to being barraged by road debris.
Thanks in advance.

BTW, Duc is having a sale on his Airwalker lips that he's selling. Just click on the link in my signature.
I think it looks pretty sharp and could serve as a replacement if I ever destroy my J's half lip.

...oh yeah...forgot that I'm not an S2Ki member.
This is what would be in my signature if I was a member.

Can't beat $260 for a polyeurathane lip...nice and aggressive, yet not too outrageous.
I think he's got a special going on for $310 painted.

Well just got done with the adjuster and they arent going to pay a dime. That being said I took it to my usual friend that repairs front ends and they told me its so so. It would take about 2 weeks working on and off to finish it but it will never be the same. So I said fuc* it and called King Motorsports and ordered another one. All out of my own pocket. I am so pissed right now. Anyway time to cool down..
