s13.5 run around

I bought this from e about a year ago and havent realy done any thing with it,the turbo/manifold gasket was blowing so i changed that,and fitted a Kaaz 2 way.any way thats about it so far But i have put a kit on it and rattle caned it in so that it looks ok to drive around in.Here are some pics.
As i bought it !






bumper removed for trial fit of new one

trial fit

and then for paint

and refit


Then trial fit rear...this bumper is a joke!replikit your kits are sh*t!DO NOT BYE ANY KITS FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

above the number plate i can get three fingers in there.i nearly got a club hammer out to teach this fu*king bumper a lesson!any way as i did not want to tack this piece of sh*t back of the car as it was a twat to fit the first time, i sprayed it on there.
and the finished car,not perfect by any means but batter than driving around with an unpainted kit
next job is 5 stud conversion and some coilovers,i got some front ones but not the rears if any one has some please

Try fitting the standard rear bumper's metal parts underneath the new one, should sit better then, or just make a support bracket for it.

Most s13 GRP rear bumpers do that, just refit it with the foam and support bracket from a uk s13, will take a bit of cutting the foam to make it fit, but will support the lip and stop it sagging!

Exactly, EVERY bumper does that.

Put the right brackets on your car before you slag people's kits off, fool

If your bumper is sagging there then cable tie it or fit the bumper bracket as others have said - not a mensa puzzle How you think any fibreglass kit is going to fit unless it's reinforced or mega gay and thick?
