Yes the sides of the bumper do go on over the fender. as for the lip it will be optional that is if i can find one or make one that works. The turn signals are not stock and i can get them at discount. They are not on all the time. I just matters how you want them. I have it so when i put my blinker on they come on only then. Yes on mine there is screws on the sides and the top and botton bolt up also to stock locations.

that must mean the sides of the bumper are VERY thin otherwise it would look buldgy...

so can you make the turn signals how its supposed to be? on with when in parking light mode and when the headlights are on, and brighter when the blinker is actually turned? why would you want them off it doesnt look right...

what car is the turn signal from so we know where to get it...

oh and the lip is not necessary but i think you should def. add a protector strip along the bottom like our stock bumpers, to prevent damage.

i have my turn signals in the off because i have lights in my FTP and thats just to much light if you know what i mean. I also have a piece of steel on the bottom of the bumper under it so if i hit a parking curb it doesent damage it

cool so is the signal from a subaru? what model? if you do make these we are gonna need to know where to get replacements.

and i think it looks better actually, with the headlight, clear turn signal and fog lights on all at the same time... i wouldnt even count that FTP as a light, it doest produce any visibility, and 99.9% of us dont have them anyways.

Beautiful craftsmanship, to say the least! I know a couple of people that would probably be very interested in that style.

Awesome work! It's great to see well thought out original creations! It really complements the lines and design of the FC


i suggest protecting the design-- i can almost guarantee someone trying to create a knock off

Great Job! That is one of the nicest looking and functional bumper covers I have seen. Just what I need for my vert to get more air through my fmic and radiator to help keep the pig cool on the track. How solid is it with the black center support removed in the radiator opening?

Come on man, who do I make the check out to? I need a new bumper cover anyway, and this would be THE ONE!!!! If you are going to produce them, have them ready ASAP so I don't blow all my cash on other crap I don't need (or more power goodies Garfinkle is talking me into getting). PLEASE.

You can obviously tell that many, many people here want one, plus with simple ads or meetings with mainstream manufacturers you can easily unload a ton of these, or at least sell the design to someone else.

I would buy one... You should seriously consider making a mold and selling it. That is one of the nicest front ends I've seen for the fc. Good work! Let us know

Looks very nice! I can't see any seam and the job looks phenomenal! That's way better than an S5 bumper in my opinion.
