Noz Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 due to width and depth of supra bumpers flat peice of carbon will set you back over 300 quid. think your option may be the better one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 are you selling your veilside bumper? Scoopra was after one. just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Most million pound prototype race cars have the same plywood gracing their fronts because it's cheap, light, easy to shape and relatively rigid. You are on a winner Craig. I might go for something like this myself, my front bumper/lip is a bit flap happy at the trailing edges now that it's not tied into the wheel arch liners, or much else for that matter.
