PUT THE STOCK ONE ON IT AND YOU WOULD NOT HAVE THAT PROBLEM!!!!!! I MANAGE A PAINT AND BODY SHOP AND HATE FIBERGLASS BUMPERS. WHY DO PEOPLE BUY THEM. THEY ARE OVERPRICED, HEAVIER IN MOST CASES, ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO REPAIR AND DO NOT FIT VERY WELL WITHOUT FABRICATION.

Sorry for the rampage.

Is that a cav or a sunfire? Anyway that looks a little to fast and ferious for me. You should ask around and see if you could find a used ss/sc bumper and lip spoiler in the classifieds. Just my 2 cents.

omg, the bumper you ruined looks like ****, and the new one you want to put on words cant even explain how rediculous it looks. Looks like a dust-buster.

You have horrible taste and give us all a bad rep.


those bumpers are a clear definition of RICE

Should of kept the stock one...The bumper you destroyed didnt look too bad but the one your planning on getting is just rediculous. I know its your car but people will point and laugh at you everywhere you go. You will most likey never take a girl to bed again if she sees that bumper alone.

Damn you people are seriously way too bored. If the guy wants to do something with his car, wether it be bad or not, don't try to make him go EMO from stupid comments. All you gotta say is no its not something i like; THAT ALL. He lost his bumper give 'em a break. This forum is getting more n more worse everyday. How about a lil respect for others. GO outside and find something else better to do than going on threads n posting the first retarded thing that comes to your minds.

Honestly TSA if you wana try it go ahead. U can always change it if you, personally dont like the outcome.

First of all, Those bumpers are ugly as hell.

Second, Why in the hell are you driving on those tires in the winter? Your a danger to yourself and everyone else on the road with those on there.

That EVO bumper is ugly! UGLY! What the Hell are you thinking?! ARE you thinking?! There must be something wrong with you...............it's just sad..............really sad.................................really, really sad............................I can't even say "To each their own" cause that is just disturbing. I wouldn't even want to see that bumper on the EVOIII itself..............................If you have health insurance I would go see a doctor, because I have fears about people that think like you. First it's "Hey! I think I'll order a bumper like this *insert picture of ugly ass thingy*", and next thing you know you go crazy and drive a school bus full of dead babies through the front doors of a post office while wearing a pink ruffled shirt singing Celine Dion, and molesting a Chimp named Wanda............................................. ...............................Guy's we need an intervention. Someone hold him down and I will get out the smelling salt, just to make sure he doesn't have a concusion, and then if he is fine we can smack him around until he does...............I just don't know if I am going to be able to sleep after reading this thread..................thanks for giving me a nightmare, now I'm going to be afraid someone is downstairs swapping my bumpers for things like that, and I am going to wake up in the morning and try to go to work, but have to call in sick because I found out my car was gay and I needed to take it counseling.
