Source for T-style 911ST front bumper?
Anyone have a source?
Most of the suppliers (eg. GT racing, Rennspeed, AIR etc) only have the widened S-style front bumper. Aussie rules require the use of a T (ie. no lip) front bumper.

I have a steel one. I don't know what it is worth but it came on a car that had factory steel ST flares. It is the correct curvature but the center section has some rust. I could cut the terminal ends off and you could fit them to a stock factory bumper.
PM me if you are interested. Chris

You mention fiberglass manufacturers. Is that what you want? A stock T bumper in FG? I would simply cut the "lip" off. Close enough.
Edit: I just went out and looked at one that I have. The area at the lower front wheel arch may have to be reworked a bit. A pint of resin and a yard of FG matt and you could lay up the ends over some waxed aluminum sheet contoured to match the rest of the curvature.. Last edited by Zeke; 03-23-2006 at 03:51 PM.. |

chris - your pm's appear to be turned off.
milt - i'm not after a stock T bumper but a bumper widened to fit with 9" ST front gaurds, but in the T style (ie. no S lower lip). here's some pic's of what i'm after. (it may be simpler to modify a stock T bumper but i thought i'd check for off-the-shelfs first) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

My PM's seem to be working.
My front bumper is exactly like the ones pictured above...except the silver one...niether the flares or the bumper are correct. Chris
