Thumbs up Let's see your yellowbird front bumpers!

So I have been working on adding a lip and making some minor adjustments to my yellow bird front bumper. Then I thought, "Hey how many YB bumpers are out there?" which leads me to this post. I'd really like to see front on pics of anybody with a YB bumper. Maybe we can spark ideas amongst the clan.

So post 'em if you got 'em

I'll post my before and afters in a few days. I'm not quite at the "after" part just yet...

Yellowbird front

First pic is when I bought it 2+ years ago.
Second pic is at Hershey last month with aero mirrors less rock guards.

Juan - I got mine from BW Motorsports. The rear bumper was a real easy fit, much easier than the front. Only had to do a cutout for the tail pipe and weatherstrip between fender and bumper.

Mine are also from BW, bought 'em with Souk's group buy. My front fit near-perfectly, and the rear just needed the fenders flexed out slightly, and the bumper ends flexed in slightly to fit, maybe 1/2" total.

I want a RUF front with brake ducts not fog lamp holes.

Is this available in the US or do you have to modify/fabricate?

Aston,
You can buy molded pieces that go into either the front blinker hole, or the fog lamp hole.

The molded piece for the blinker is primarily used as additional air for the oil cooler (here's one on my wife's 911)

BW provides them either way. I originally bought one with fog lamp holes and later swapped for the brake ducts (see pics in link above).
