anyone know how precision porsches t/a style bumper compare?

 

Here are the pics

Bumper arrived via freight in a big, nicely padded box





Passenger side...not bad



Driver side






Larger lip fitment



Small lip fitment....pretty disappointed here



If I squeeze the sides in, this is how much it pops out

 

Thickness (or thiness?) of the lips



I will recommend reinforcing them with fiberglass, which is what I'll be doing

Imperfections in the radiator ducts





Once again, these are fiberglass peices and they need some "finishing touches". If you expect to get a kit that all you need to do is paint and bolt on with no prep work, this kit is not for you.

More pics tomorrow when fitted

I just called them and might be ordering the front and sides, I wont do anything until I see how yours turns out...Again thanks allot for your effort!

 

Thanks for the pics Edwin. I may just have the lips left off.

 

That looks like how mine came.

It did take quite a bit of body work to get it all fitting correctly. I left the lips off as well as it was low to begin with.

The most challenging part was to get the grills to fit right. One side was perfect and the other required a replacement piece as somebody really messed the first one up in manufacturing somewhere.

 

Will be following this, want to know how much work it needs to fit...

No problem. I wish everyone would have done a comparison on the replica kits (Precision, Misha, etc) but at least we'll have one down

i thought about that too but I don't like the "fang" look. I am thinking about possible doing a custom lip (mold it on) but we'll see. i'm going to see if I can get down my driveway first after the test fit

Tim, interesting. I did notice one "shaped" a little differently than the other. I'll have to see how it works out tonight.

Stay tuned. Should have an update late tonight or early tomorrow morning.
