Does anybody happen to know who makes this rear bumper or where I could find one?



Any help is much appreciated.

 

I do not know about the rear bumper bur the front is an AFR one. you might look at there site

 

That's a 'stretched-tail' version, likely added to accent the front end which is patterned after the Porsche 935 'long tails' popular in late 70's, early 80's racing.

These Porsche's were used at LeMans and some of the longer european tracks due to better aerodynamics at speed and better straight line stability. If you look at the back end on that thing, it has definitely been lengthened, as the rear window is nowhere near where it should be when it touches the slant at the back of the stock unibody.

Also, in the pictures on the top of the hood edge, you can see where they have 'scalloped' the fenders and hood to further add to the Porsche 935 design - it's visible as ridges against the black background of the forest trees.

Not my style, by any stretch... (so to speak)

 

wow i didnt notice that at first--it is stretched

 

ishy poo

 

Wow, thanks LongDuck! I really didn't appreciate the detail of that car until you pointed that all out. That IS rediculously long in the back. I now realize how much work that would actually take to get the back to look anything like that. But does anyone know if there are any other rear bumpers that angle up like that, providing more of a sharp look rather than rounded? Maybe one that doesn't require an ungodly amount of custom fabrication?

 

huh?

 

eww that pic look like a camaro

 

i can definitely see the resemblance. as far as where you would find that bumper. OVERSEAS my friend, and that's about it. AFR does all that work, but you have to translate the site from Japanese to English. I don't know the site, I can find it if i try.

 

CORRECTION it is ARF not AFR. sorry had to catch myself there. here's the site: http://www.a-rf.co.jp/A-RF/index.html. it might be on there and it might not. i don't know, and i havent checked it because i do not and/or speak japanese!

 

Thanks a lot for all your help. Unfortunately I don't have the means to be shipping parts in from Japan. I guess I was just naive to think that I could get something that slick in the US. But my search will continue on for a similar, affordable rear bumper. I'll be sure to tell everyone if I find one. Once again, thanks to everyone for your abundance of knowledge.

 

87-93 Mustang rear bumper fits with a little modification. It doesn't look too bad. Cheap
