Default Any Interest in a Front Bumer Brace for Greddy TT Owners???

As some of you may have seen i am currently trying to push the limits of the PE TT kit. One thing that has been very restrictive for us is the intercooler/ piping. So we are just finishing up swaping a greddy intercooler in and making larger custom piping. When i got the new greddy intercooler put on i still however wanted to have a front bumper brace for protection, so i found a guy local here in Wilmington that made me one to fit. The finished product turned out awesome so i was wondering if anyone here was wanting one for their greddy intercooler. If i can get probally 5 people interested in getting one i could get him to make them. The price would be around $300 shipped. Here are some pictures and let me know if you would be interested. Thanks!

true if you hit really hard its not gonna help too much but like symalik said if its not too hard it will help alot, you wont have your intercooler as the first thing being hit. Every added protection up front helps

Thanks Sharif! The quality of the bumper is really good and looks even better in person. Im really happy with the way it turned out.


Well it seems like there is alot of interest so i may start a list soon of people that want one. Where should i start this new thread (Inventor classifides maybe)? or can i just start it in this section?

Thanks everyone!

Thats a great idea, I would hate the idea of driving without a brace.
