Celica Forums General Discussion General would yall with blitz?

for those of you who have the blitz front bumper...would you guys lower it? 2inches?? on stock 16's?

no 18s

i don't have the blitz front bumper, but i wouldn't lower it 2" on 16s. with your stock 16's and medium low profile tires (i assume), you will only get about 6" worth of ground clearance with the polyurethan blitz (the fiberglass blitz is a little different).

that said, 4" off the ground is about a perfect "drop" just from the kit. i wouldn't really drop it unless you got bigger wheels.

it would be on the ground if you lowered 2 inches.

17's with 1 inch drop gives me like 3-4 inches ground clearance.

and the 17's are same height as stock 16's

yeah, thats what i said...it'll give you about a 4" ground clearance with stock 16's (the 17's are the same size because billy used a lower profile tire)

so 4inch clearance? thats about a regular sized fist then hey? but if i lower i swear it'll look soo good, but i will have lots of problems going into and getting out of places for sure...but if its a fist clearance i will lower fo sho..thanx yall...btw where can i get those black pieces under the front bumper, to prevent scratching amd sraping the bumper??

I don't know much about looks but a guy here had a Blitz front bumper and maybe many. How much do they go for? He charged me a $100. I recognized it instantly as something I had seen before.

the fiberglass version of the Blitz is ugly.the urethane one looks WAY BETTER

you don't want to go lower than 4 inches. (it's not even legal to go much lower than that in many places..coke can/cigarette box size).

as far as those "black things" those would be carbon fiber air splitters. they're expensive and if all you are going to use them for is to "prevent scratches" under you lip, then do NOT do this.

air splitters add downforce (think of it as a spoiler for your bumper).

in any case..don't worry about scratching, no one looks at the underside of your car anyway. scratching is going to happen whether your super careful or not...you should worry about scratching as less as possible. having a very low car will force you to change your driving habits.

Stock height and NO DROP on 17s...









Compared to 2" drop and WingsWest on 16s...

^^ and the blitz still looks just a low, if not lower than the 2" drop & ww kitted celica.

i would drop it 1.5 inches with 17's

i liked the bumper alot, but too bad you were not around when I got rid'of it last year

time to get rid of mine

I bottom-out enough with stock height, and I'm on 19s.

...though my tires are 215/35 Still an inch higher than the 15s.
