RS front bumper???

Recommended Posts

Hi chaps,

 

I like the look of the RS front bumper and want to fit one to my corrado G60. The problem i have is that my current standard front spoiler catches on my driveway (due to the nature of the slope) and the car hasn't even been lowered yet.

I plan to lower the car and fit the RS front bumper. Does anybody know if the RS bumper sits lower than the standard front bumper and 90mm spoiler (ie will they have the same ground clearance?)...if so maybe its not a good idea for me to do this :cry:

Any help would be appreciated

 

Tom

depends on which RS bumper you get... ;)

 

The Reiger full A-B-S plastic one (available from Venom and other Reiger dealers) is approximately 5mm deeper than the standard G60 bumper with an early (90mm) spoiler on it... The one I had on J-DUB (see pic in sig) used to catch going into my garage until I got hold of a piece of wood to put along the edge of the curb to soften the slope slightly... Blue-Joe now has it on his Corrado. 8)

Cheers for the reply Henny. Argh, i'm going to struggle then especially if i lower it. I'll have to sort something out as i definately want to fit one.

nah, it was a single piece of 2inch thick (high) 6inch wide wood the width of the curb access into my garage... it was just the angle of the pavement was just too much and it'd catch just as you were about to go up onto the (lowered!) curbstones... 5foot ramps would have meant that I'd have raised the car up! :lol:

I'm glad i'm not the only one with this problem then. I would dig up my whole driveway if it means i can fit one of those.

I'm sure there will be a bit of wood i can use....

how about fitting air-ride suspension, change the ride height at the touch of a button (or 3!) ?!? ;) :geek: :joker2:
