Default Zip Ties And Bandaids? Lets See Em?

Ya, so i hit a cone really good and hard at my last drift event!

so, now i have a crack on the factory front bumper going from the clear reflector side marker down to almost the bottom of the bumper...gotta few inches before it completely tears through...So i plan on zip tie'n it up and giving it the frankenstein look! lol.... I think ill roll with this front bumper to events from now on and get me a replacement bumper in the near future, maybe a body kit...


I know a while back i saw some pics of a PPW Z with a bandaid on it!

Who has pics of their track day damage and the zip tie/band aid fixes...

Safety wire stitches FTW , IMO they look better and they are stronger.
