Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Scraping Issue

When I get my blitz rally kit in december do you guys have any ideas what i could do to prevent scratches on the front bumper? Im asking cause i heard that fiberglass will crack very easily so i was thinkin maybe an air splitter. what do you guys think?

I am buying the air splitter for mine...
just try to avoid everything...
nothin can really prevent you...I know after lowering and getting the air splitter on mine, I may still scrape...
I have scraped hard on my blitz and it's fine...

I have a noob question. What dose an air splitter do?

1.its a bodyguard for the bumper,it gets scratched instead of the bumper
2.looks cool
3.lets some wind flow through,scientific crap..who cares it looks cool!!!

creates better downforce in the front of the car...giving you better grip.

and takes money out of your pocket and you get a hunk of ...metal almost for it

hunk of Carbon Fiber...

there you go dude.

its more for #2...

as far as your front bumper - no one ever looks UNDER your car - so you will never notic scratches/scrapes

when was the last time someone looked at your car with the same perspective as what is in this photo?



or even...



Most people will be looking at your car from this angle...



So if you have scrapes on your front bumper...

NO ONE WILL EVER NOTICE!!!!







... 3 years and no problems with the lower part of the front bumper

The problems that you will have if you drive like shit will be...

the attachements inside your fender...
(ever wonder why there are no close-up shots of my driver's side fron fender )

using a carbon fiber as a guard? hmmmmm, i dont think so, commonly used for downforce purposes not guarding purposes, whatever you say guys

hahah Eugic92 got involeved in this too!!!! right as I was posting photos of his car

Eugic92 =
THANKS!!!

I was talking to him.
