Question RE N1 bumper install?

Has anyone installed the RE N1 front bumper? Did you cut your existing rebar? Also, did you attach the metal from the top of the old bumper to support the new one? If anyone has any pics too, that'd be great -Joe

sounds good, it's going to take a while to get here from across the pond though. That thing is retarded expensive, well with the options it is.

um ya, my friend has this front bumper along with teh cf underpanel and he says that its perfect, the 7 is his daily driver and he doesnt worry about scraping too much besides extreme situations like sudden height elevations ie driveways and stuff

a big drawback is that thier are all types of chips and scratches and stuff so he deff cant enter any shows unless he figures a way to get it cleaned up but in my opinion it looks SICK go for it, and make sure u post pics, i can get more information for you later

You should get your friend to post some pics - that'd be nice to see. I guess you can either drive your car or have it garage-kept...but then what's the fun in that? I say drive it and have fun...it's not an investment and if you expect to get money back when sold you're in the wrong hobby...lol

Here's an install pic I found (not of mine)...doesn't show too much other than they had to do some fiberglass work to it for it to line up with the hood (not much work, but still some)...Anybody else got anything?
