Just got my car finished on saturday, only to go and crash it yesterday :(. The type K bumper I had on it has been smashed to pieces, so I'm on the look out for another bumper (don't wanna have to fork out another ?350.00 for a new type K). Anyone got any suggestions? I want it to be fairly aggresive looking (like its gonna chew you up and spit you out) so it matches the rest of the car.

Suggestions?

that nova on one of the posts with the vectra bumper looked the tops (thin it was styling section about a week ago). the vents on the side gave it the edge. Plenty of vectras scrapped so check oot the local scrappy for bargin!

Get in touch with BAT motorsport. If u look in the top right hand corner of ur screen u will see one of there bumpers they make.

They also make another which ressembles the Evo VI bumper. Check revs and look in the cars owned by the people who work there. There is a purple nova on 18's with it on.

Both are around the ?250 mark.

yes but if you cock it up it'll look shite. Never seen a novadose bumper up close but if the arch ends (the bits that follow the contour of the arch ) are like normal nova bumpers and curve in to give a smooth finish and you cut em off you'll need to remould this section otherwise the top n bottom bit of the bumper will loose support (again - never seen novadose bumper close up so perhaps it wont.)

U could trim it, shorten it, then blend the ends back on once shortened? Need to know what your doing though...
