Duct tape rules. actually i'd leave it this way but the bumper is kind of unstable at high speeds. i'm scared it'll come off while doing a 100+ and i'll end up driving over it.

30 ish. i've hit cones at 60+ with other bumpers whether fg or not and have not had any do what they did to this bumper. it's not the fact that it just broke but it is so cheap that the pass. side cracked right under the headlight, the mounting tab on the pass side snapped, the center where the emblem is cracked, obviously where i hit it cracked, it ripped out of the mounting point to the fender and also cracked the fender. if where i hit cracked it wouldn't be as big of a deal but it broke in too many diff. areas. like i said the thing is actaully being held together cause of the clearbra that is on it.

Did you install your own grilling into that bumper?

Sucks man! Your setup looked really good too. I would ask you if you plan on replacing what got broken, but I think I already know the answer.
