USA suppliers of SC RS style front bumper?
Hey there fellow Pelicans,
Does anyone know if there are any USA suppliers of the SC RS style front bumper? I know there are a few overseas but I'm hoping there may be one here in the US. Perhaps Damon of Series 900? Thanks for the help!

TRE Motorsports, Better Bodies Motor Design, Vertex Auto to name just a few... I think TRE is going to be the better of them as there is a lot of talk here about them.

I know the problem ,and I will give you a tip
sounds worst than it is order it by EB motorsport in england , they make the best Ive seen around ask him to gut it in 2 halfs using a regular saw when you get it, you line it up on the car, and you buy a fiber repair kit the cost is MAX 20-30 usd , you repair it in the back , fiber is strong so it will hold tight and the rest, in the front , is a job for the painter then the shipping will cost you max 100 usd I also make fiber parts ( not the SCRS) but I have send bumpers like that all over and it works , and its a cheap effective way reson for the expensive shipping is the total lenght og the box just my 2 danish koroner Marek |

We don't make it either- not enough demand to offset the cost of making a plug and mold
Marek has a good idea re shipping

Why not just use the existing parts? I looks similar to the existing valance and bumper. Couldn't brake ducts be molded into the fog light holes and the front bumper rubber be removed and fill in the gap?

Someone here posted pics of their project where they did just that. Of course there was no weight savings (i am guessing probably it added weight due to the amount of filler used)
