99 spec bumper
 

im ordering the 99 spec bumper should i get it with or without the rebar????

without

why with out ive been told it is easyer to mout with the rebar

Do a search on this, there is alot of info on why people are just using there stock rebar

you can just trim your stock one.

It's either or really. Of course, with the stock bar, you'll have to trim/cut some to accommodate the '99 front shaping.

It'd be like spending another $250 simply because you're lazy.

The '99 spec rebar does a MUCH better job of supporting the bumper skin and preventing sagging. Sure, you can cut or remove the original rebar, but you may be dealing with a sagging bumper in a year or two.

BTW, I just modified the original rebar and planned on spraying some foam under the bumper skin to prevent sagging. I never got around to the foam though... the car broke and I've been way too busy to work on it.

I've been running my modded 93 rebar under the 99 bumper for over four years now with no bumper sag at all.

hummmm ya i dont want to spend all that money for nothing if i can just mod the one i have does anyone have any pics of the mods needed ???

IIRC it's easier to install the 99spec fog lights if you have the 99 rebar as it has the mounting points in it....FWIW

Here's my rebar so that you can see how minor the cutting required is:

did mine exactly like that, and experianced no sagging.... most here will just hack off the ends on both sides and call it a day. I wanted to keep as much rebar on there as I could so I cut and trimed as I went, and it turned out to look just like pictured above...save your money on the 99rebar ... money better spent else where...

The 99 rebar is glossy white and made of stiffer plastic, but if the one you already have works, then go with it. I went with the 99 rebar just because I didn't have one from on my PFS bumper before and did not feel like paying shipping to ship a huge part that I would just have to turn around and hack up.

If 250 is no big deal to you then just get the 99 shipped with your bumper, otherwise, break out the dremel and go to town. GL

seven lust clear your pm inbox please

go full 99spec rebar and all for complete function!!!!!!!!

Wow, is it just me, or does anybody else smell that? Oh its just the bullshit I just read. Dont spead false information.

Just use your stock rebar, ive had my 99 front for years and have not noticed any ill effects. It took me 10 minutes with my dremel to get it cut correctly.
