hey whats up guys? was wondering what options i have for the bumper tuck mod.. i know it takes 15 minutes and ive used the search tool and saw the results.. most bumper tucks i saw people actually used a small plate and then bolted it to the support bar underneath.. is there any other way to do the mod without drilling holes so just incase in the future i dont want to tuck it anymore it can be reversed.. any input is appreciated!

 

Very strong double sided tape?

I used 5 screws, no plate.

 

I drilled holes and used zipties. I'm not worried about wanting to go back to the way it was.

 

Yea I think you either use some sorta tape or glue???.... But even if you want to go back to stock, it wouldn't look that bad... I did it whike i was installing my exhaust, then I sold it and went back to stock... It doesn't look that bad

 

There are some good suggestions here:

lmao yeah i dont think tape or double sided industrial tape will hold.. i mean when i bend the part thats being "tucked" it bends but it resists my bending lol

 

Keep the holes small and as far under the car as possible. If you need to go back, you can fill the holes with epoxy and use touch up paint on that. I doubt anyone will notice.

 

hey guys, i had a custom single exhaust made for my 370. The only problem is it is sticking out of one of the two little exhaust exits, and it looks horrible. I know that the 350 can tuck the bumper, but because of our butthole it looks like that isnt possible. Has anyone tried to tuck the bumper besides me? or has anyone cut it? Im just looking for a way to get that tucked look, maybe cut it heat it and bend the edges up? If anyone has any ideas or has done anything like this some advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

o maybe you could of spent the money and got a duel exit exhaust(or a better brand exhaust that wouldnt do that)....hmm that could work to and maybe possible look better

 

get an aftermarket with one slot or fill in the other hole sand and repaint

 

single exhaust on a 370 is fail in my eyes...

 

post pics of the rear, underside and all......lets see whats up..

Maybe I wanted a single exhaust? And a better brand that wouldnt do that? you have no idea what You, or I are talking about.

yea i thought about getting a new bumper but there just really isnt anything out that i like, and if i do like it it is for a dual lol. its still really new so there arent a lot of parts out yet.. thats the problem i keep having lol.

brandon- ok... lol? its my car so its my eyes that matter.

jason i will try to get some pics up.. its hard to get a camera under there lol ill see what i can do. Im going to see if me and jake can figure anything out next time i meet up with him

 

kool.. I'm a single exhaust ***** and I wanna see a picture of your car :P hope you can do the bumper tuck to make it clean

Best of the luck mate!

 

im doing the bumper tuck this weekend but im really not wanting to screw holes in the bumper. i know some have used 3m tape to hold but im wondering how well it held up and for how long. i have searched for this but none of those threads have updated on how well the tape held up, anyways and info would be great.

thanx

 

Hii,

I did my tuck about 8 months ago, and its still fine. It wont move even if I tried to pull it down. Just go under, unscrew some stuff, clean, put the tape all over the strut bar that will touch the bumper, and push the bumper onto the strut bar for 5 mins. Will be fine.

 

sweet i was hoping to hear that..lol..what kind of tape did you use? or what would be best?

 

I am currently running a borla exhaust system but I have decided I want to go with a single exit exhaust on my z. I have seen people do bumper tucks on their z's, but can anyone tell me how I could go about getting that done?
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
