cobra "r" urethane bumper support

Invictus · January 5th, 2007, 07:09 PM

i've had a cobra r polyurethane front bumper for a while now.. it's a great fit and all but it didnt come with any pre drilled holes or anything. i got it on and painted using the little metal brackets that came off my old GT bumper and it holds it great.. but i dont have any support by the fenderwhells (where the bumper ends by each wheel) and the front lip that sticks out kinda sags a little bit in the front... paint is chipping off everywhere from stress bends from ratteling in the wind on the interstate. what is the best way to just brace the hell out of it and never worry about it again? i cant really figure a way to do it and also hide it at the same time.

go buy the bumper clips at autozone, and evenly disperse the weight on each clip or your going to flex the urethane

alright.. i got the fenderwells taken care of they're nicely tightened up but the very front of my bumper.. it has a lip that sticks out a good 2-3 inches and the weight of the bumper just causes it to sag down a bit... i can't figure a way to brace it

drill holes in it and add some clips to it, thats the only way to keep it on. You would of been better just buying a cobra R bumper already assembled.

the entire bumper is one peice.. i have hoodclips on it thats not my problem. the entire front portion of my bumper is just sagging down maybe 1/4 inch i can actually push up on it and there is some play in it... on the interstate at high speeds it just puts to much stress on it and im getting some paintchips. i need some kind of custom support from underneath and was just wondering if anyone had this problem with aftermarket bumper covers and had any ideas
