So I ordered my 777 bumper today, and I was curious what the air dam insert piece is called that the 777/Ikon bumper is missing that covers the washer fluid reservoir? I see it listed on the MP Concepts bumper parts but not the 777 bumper. Also, can I buy this somewhere or do I need to make one myself?

That does not cover the reservoir tank. that is just a frame piece behind the upper grill to stimulate the GT500 look and has a center piece to let you place the Shelby Cobra emblem in the center.

Thanks. I will order belly pan when you verify the P/N. Thank you for your help
Might need to order the base wheel well liners, cause it will leave a square opening into the engine bay and debris will kick inside since no brake cooling vent that goes up an incline into to the PP1 wheel well liner, if you go back to a base belly pan.

Oh ok, I thought the blocked out part on the left was to block the washer fluid tank. Even Still, Does anyone know what this piece is called and where I can get one if I am getting the 777 bumper?

Call 777 or email them, they helped me out. Yes, you will need to install a GT Non PP1 splash pan and wheel liners. I also had to make 4 each L brackets on my Vicrez. You might not need to make L brackets with the 777 like I did with Vicrez. Now my front bumper is extremely supported by the Non PP1 belly pan/splash guard panel. Remember, the belly splash panel supports the front bumper which I feel is need when going over 100mph. Good luck

Vicrez can go without side curtains? Still confused on which version let's you skip the side curtains.

Alright I mean the side skirts?
The front side winglets could be cut off smooth, but it is a GT500 replica so that's why they have winglets. You can call them and ask them if they have the bumper minus the side winglets.goid luck

I know it's just several have lost them and they are not sturdy at high speeds vs the real thing.

Mine are now. I put press in 6mm x 1.0 Nut plates and used 6mm bolts everywhere. Solid as a rock already made high speed runs over 140mph, no issues.

Our 777Performance bumper cover has been on 11 months, sustained 100mph+ multiple times a month (mostly freeway driving) - no issues with the winglets/splitter. Truly depends on how meticulous one is about installation.

On my GT500 Vicrez, I installed M6 rivet nuts in every location which used a plastic, push in fastener and used M6 bolts. Tight, secure as can be.

Forgot, I hit 145-150 mph all the time with zero issue.
