I bought an aftermaket front bumper for my 1994 celica st. The problem I am having is that it wraps around the whole front end. The light cut outs and everything are in place, but the dam thing wraps around my fenders. Has anyone ever ordered a bumper like this and if so what did you do. I was thinking about just cutting it, but the body shop said I wouldn't have anywhere to mount it. Any Ideas People!

Any Ideas People! was it a cheap bumper by any chance? cheap models tend to lose shape rather quickly. just like side skirts or full body kits, the cheap ones are a bitch to fit. |

Are you sure it's not a bumper that has to be molded INTO the fenders?

This is basically how the bumper looks. It's just longer on the sides where the fenders are. My exact bumper is at the shop with my car so I can snap a photo of it right now.

Ah, it's a crappy Blitz knock off. Yeah that one goes over the fenders. There was someone on here that had the bumper and tried to make it work, but it looked like crap and I think he junked it. Some guy in Florida IIRC. I'll try and find him.

the bumper will wrap around the bottom side of the fender unlike the oem. But our OEM splitters and lip do the same thing it is just not a full bumper.
