Well I finally made my poor fit eat a little curb yesterday. = . It was relatively low speed but still managed to put things in perspective for me. Luckily the only mechanical repair needed is a $85 dollar alignment as nothing was bent. However, now I have a small crack in my front bumper shell as well as some scrapes to go with it. I also took a good deal of metal of my rim but managed not to destroy it or the tire. Doesn't look too bad but it must be fixed. Since I'm going to be replacing the whole bumper shell I figured I might as well look if now would be a good opportunity to see if anyone has come out with a new front aero kit. I know of the mugen one and it would actually cover up the damage perfectly. However it is $450 shipped from bernardi which is twice what the whole shell costs and would not actually repair the damage I've done. Aside from mugen are there any options for me?

 

check your dealer for factory OEM color match bumper if you want to fix it that badly

 

the dealer is your only option for now

 

check out ebay, I saw some front bumpers there.

 

JDM front end conversion!!!! jk...

 

+ rep (not that my negative rep does much lol)

 

a front bumper cover from the dealer will not be paint matched, only the OEM optional pieces are color matched i.e. Mugen Kit.

So keep the cost of painting the new bumper in consideration as well.

And you avatar freaks me out, BTW.

 

OEM bumper + paint will still be cheaper either way.

 

your right, i asked at work today and was corrected. I was thinking the mugen lip. sorry to OP for misinformation

 

Its gonna be the mugen lip it looks like. Got a quote for an actual repair. $500 cash. Would be $625 if not a friend. The mugen lip is cheaper ~$440. I coulnd't stand the look of the mugen kit at first but its starting to grow on me. Just gotta wait for the next paycheck.

 

Also, My rim is a bit torn up, Does anyone know where I can get a rim for less the the insane $400+ it costs?

I might as well buy a whole new set of rims for that price.
