just wanted say I'm very happy with the half bumper and glad I went just half to save the mazda emboss on the stock top half . A couple pics . Thanks Shine , well done

 

Looks good. 2 questions:

How do you attach the half bumper to the other bumper?

Do you have side pics ?

 

yeap ken makes great stuff

 

man looks dam good and i would get it if i didnt own a fd

 

the fd one's from shine are just as nice as the fc one. In matter fact all of his products are first hand top notch.

Bump for good quality workmanship.

Oh nice bumper in the first post

 

wow! that looks really good! I'm gonna tell my cousin to buy that for his vert.

 

hmm i wonder how that half bumper would look on an S4, i need a facelift for my TII

 

yeah that looks really good! I have always been impressed w/ shine's products.

 

The body shop had concerns about mounting the bumper and longevity. Even though the fitment was one of the best they had seen , the flex around the corner still buckled the FRP a bit and left very small gaps in a few places . We decided against tape and I let them glue the top edge to the flat part of the stock lip and then two screws on the inside pf ther wheel well to hold the sides in . Glue was not applied to the side so that if I ever had to replace the whole bumper I could without it being stuck to the side fender

it works well i think

 

very clean. how much did it cost

 

for $$, search the shineauto stuff, its a standard item on their product list. Its definately reasonabley priced

 

Ok. that does look pretty good. keeps the stock lines. Accentuates the car as opposed to changing it. Good job!

Ken

 

does that half bumper come unpainted white or unpainted black?

 

whoa, your vert looks nearly new. I'm in love with those FTP's
nice, I'm thinking how it'd look on an S4 as well

 

Definitely black out the "mouth" of that bumper. The red "teeth" aren't cutting it.

 

i got a Vert too man... love it, looks really clean!

 

Ha , I know what you mean, I struggled with that decision and decided not to put the paint shop through the hassle . My gut said it would be better black like stock , but I kinda like the red "teeth" now.

 

bumper comes in black primered form.

 

The half bumper looks great. I'm going to check out shineautoproject.com

 

one year update ............... shineauto quality product has held up good .

No issues with fitment , paint , or installation method.

 

Word....I love how it blends perfectly with the stock bumper. I too am a big purist on Mazda factory aero and I like how you aimed to preserve the embossed logo. Well done!

Shine will have my business very soon.
