Default Hate Front Bumper, Any Suggestions?

Alright, here's the deal, I have the Veilside Exe. front bumper. I don't have any drop on the car, with 20's and the front bumper still scrapes. I like the Look of the L-Sportline, but that's getting pretty hard to come across. I'm thinking of going stock with the front bumper, and a TTE lip. Anybody think that will not flow? Any suggestions on another bumper that may flow well, other than the L-Sportline. I prefer anything but fiberglass, don't want to have to deal with that. My roads aren't exactly the best around here! Thanks in advance.

John

For the GS I think there are very few bumpers that arent FRP. I think the RMM is poly. That is a nice looking bumper, not sure if it is still made or if it is hard to come by though.

You are at stock height and you still scrape? Do you just scrape on steep driveways and speed bumps or do you scrape on pretty much everything. If it is just steep driveways I can understand but at stock height it shouldnt be too bad.

I'd love to get that L-Sport again. If it's just called a different name, then please, let me know. I just thought i was being discontinued.

I scrape on pretty much everything that is not road height. I hate it! Mostly on the steep driveway and speed bumps, but all the driveways i go to, have the drop, then rise, and there are too many speedbumps to count! I almost crushed the front bumper on a driveway today, and that told me i had to change it.

John

As for L-Sport, plus Veilside Sides and rear
