Installed the bumper as-is. No modification to any of the grilles. I think airflow concerns are fueled by paranoia. So many guys run this setup and don’t have issues.
You poor chap. Good thing you live in the United States. I hope your package arrives undamaged. I had to spend $1,000 to fix their bs. Granted that was a thousand Canadian so it's probably like $12 us LOL
My car has spent most of its life as a show vehicle. Even daily driving, you could make the bumper work. But I don’t believe it was engineered with track use in mind. So I avoid higher speeds. This isn’t the same thing as the actual GT500 front end, which is structured better, with grille openings that actually serve a purpose.
Car looks great man and that's one hell of a roller shot.My two cents. Primarily for those with lower ride height.
I have the Ikon Motorsports bumper, which is the exact same thing you get from 777 Performance. Been on my car for a year now. Still looks phenomenal, albeit some minor sagging from the chin spoiler and side winglets. I’m lowered on Steeda progressives… scraping is inevitable, but I take near-excessive precaution when driving. Whether it’s an alternate route into a restaurant parking lot, or a longer distance around the neighborhood to avoid speed bumps. I figure preventative measures will help durability and lengthen the lifespan of this $1,200 piece(s) of plastic. With that being said, I have bashed it a couple times, inflicting minor damage to the underside of the chin. No cracks or bends. Only scuffs and scrapes that aren’t visible unless you’re looking beneath the car. As for the side winglets, they seem to have angled slightly downward over time, almost acting as a “scoop”. However, this problem isn’t visibly obvious and it hasn’t affected clearance.
