Amuse bumper is the way so heavy ?
Received Aero jacket front bumper last week and impressed that it was so heavy. remove stock bumper today and it feel like nothing
 . i can use 1 finger to lift it up  . while have to use my 2 hand to support the amuse bumper.. Amuse front bumper full FRP should weight 3-5 times than the stock (i feel like 5 times). I am very concerned that all the bolt and plastic nuts can hold that weight in front  Share your experience please. i am not sure the Genuine japan Amuse house or ShineAuto would weight the same ?

That's the price you pay to look different i.e. added weight, cost more, breaks, scrapes more, etc. but worth it right? Just go for it.

replicas, FRP in general, heavy and touch but easy to get cracked  Actually full FRP is 3M fiber glass resin. i found out this when they modify the bumper cause it was too thin. we have to fortify it Last edited by dkinghl; 06-14-2014 at 03:42 PM. |
