Sorry to resurrect this, but I too got a Triple Seven Mach 1 bumper for my gen 2 after a minor fender bender; unsure if I'm just seeing things, but did it seem like the bottom of the handling lip was all-around a decent bit higher off the ground than the bottom of the rocker moldings? FWIW my...

Alright, final update: it's all fixed up and back on the road! Assembling the bumper as per Triple Seven's instructions isn't too bad, there are a few snap-in and fitment issues that require some forcing and a healthy dollop of JB Weld in some places. As for getting the bumper on the car...

Figured I'd post another update in case it helps someone else down the road. Items that got replaced: Impact bar (no surprise here) Upper tie bar RT Front bracket RT Support bracket Items that got repaired (just needed some bending apparently): RT Upper reinforcement RT Front reinforcement...

Sorry that this is more of a logistics question, happy to post elsewhere if it's a better fit. I'm looking to sell my cloth Recaros out of my '16 GT non-premium as I intend on putting in some fixed-back track seats and a roll bar. As much as I'd like to offload them in a local sale, I know that...

Good to know the specifics of how they failed. Honestly not surprising. Probably going to revisit the junkyard route or used on eBay; the latter seems slightly promising in that I can maybe score an OEM assembly for under $350 with some light scratches (which I'd be totally ok with).

Update for anyone interested, and a question for anyone who can chime in. I ended up sending the car off to a local body shop, @SHOdaddy68 you were pretty much spot on with your assessment. The one area they were able to bend back into shape was the flange at the end of the frame rail; the car...

Not quite what I'm looking to do with the car. It'll still be an occasional summer street car, so I'll need it to have proper roadworthy crash safety.

Ah crap I knew it. I appreciate this look-through, thank you! I'd spent some time poring over what dealer repair stuff I could muster up and I didn't put together that the upper tie bar is what took the brunt of it. I guess that explains how it still drives straight, but duly noted that this is...

So I got into a minor front-end collision in some stop-and-go traffic a couple days ago in my 2016 GT Performance Pack. Probably 10 MPH or less and the hit was on the passenger side of the front bumper. Luckily enough, the car drove perfectly fine and straight afterwards, so my assumption here...

Sold!

Bump, price dropped!

Mostly brand new and never installed. The red stud plates and stud retainers have never been installed and were recently purchased after I lost the original pieces in the middle of a chaotic move to a new house (hence the mismatched colors). The bearing plates only have about 100 street miles on...

sorry, sold!
