Front Bumper Modification Ideas

Hmm o.k. Not sure how the foam does more protecting than the metal bumper. I don't disagree with you, it just doesn't seem like enough to make any difference.

The foam makes it so that at a 5 mph crash there is no damage to anything. There is foam behind every plastic bumper I know of... The foam can absorb the light impacts softly.

what im going to to is cut the riv bumper in haft and use to top half and then cut the bottom half off the aurora bumper and just mold then together. but im thinking that what im going to do it now

Probably you're right - It just seems like there would still be enough deflection of the bumper cover to crack it. It must be more flexible than I think.

that would be great if it was just bold on no messin around

i will be after i get mine done im going to send it to a company so we can get it in production

I love it! it looks really ballsy and exotic...and it doesnt really look like its a crappy aftermarket kit. it looks like it could have came like that.

The look is growing on me. I think it will end up being completely made from scratch though - I don't see the curve of the Aurora bumper following the curve of the Riv bumper.

thats the beauty of a custom my friend

so anything new coming of the custume bumper?

Dude, that looks like a Ferrari! If they made a large lux coupe, this'd be it. Of course, the back wouldn't look like a Ferrari, but I like the stock rear. If the height lines up with the rest of the car, like the front bumper isn't dragging on the ground while the side and rear are high off, I may consider buying one of these if you get it in production!

new ideas, im not so sure, i want some with a wide front for my intercooler this summer

The first one looks cool, but I love the second one. Looks like you could fit a nice big intercooler with that second one. They're both pontiac front ends, but I think the bottom one is a GTO? They look cool, and go with the rest of the Riv very nicely!

thanks for the idea

Oh, wow, that one looks stock almost!

That last one looks freakin awesome. it looks like it a naturally awesome sports car

new pic much better

now would these bumpers stick out from a side view like oem one does??? and what about the rear bumper??????? if you can get a bunch of these mad then i would definitely buy one.

good idea i will try to get some rear ones made up. but would you guys want side exhaust exits like me or out the back

haha that doesn't look like a gramps riv.....

Sign me up for front and rear bumpers, very nice The only things I don't like about my Riv are the ugly bumpers! I was planning to remove the side moldings that mimic the body side moulding, by cutting them out, filling, etc, but now maybe I'll wait a while to do the body work and concentrate on the performance stuff.
