Polyurethane JDM Bumpers

Postby Pops_AE86 » Mon Jun 17, 2019 12:52 pm

**Please delete if not allowed**

The day has finally come! Quality AE86 replica JDM bumpers made here in the USA. We are going to be producing bumpers for the zenki, kouki, as well as the levin variants.

Note: **These are not made of fiberglass**
We will be casting them out of polyurethane. This means you don’t have to worry about a fiberglass bumper shattering. With polyurethane you could fold it in half or roll it up into a ball and it will go back to its original shape by heating it up depending on the mixture.

Funding for this project will allow 10 people to get one of the first bumpers made by us at a discounted price ($500). Prices after this will raise to around 600 depending on time & materials spent on each bumper. The funding will help us put all our effort into just making bumpers for you.

If you’re interested in getting your hands on one check out our kickstarter.

Already have a JDM bumper and want one of ours for free? DM me.
If sales go well we will also start casting interior trim/pieces, side skirts, rear bumpers, and more!
Have a question? Feel free to comment or DM me.
Please share so we can get this out there.

Yes, one per backer for this order if you want another you could back again. Yes after this we will be doing constant production of bumper. People who are not backers will have to wait an additional month to place orders.

I love that you’re doing this and am planning to do some small 3D Scanning and printing of my own for JDM retainers etc. As an enthusiast and someone who really cares about this community, my one word of caution is the Department of Transportation. Just make sure you have an Off-road use only letter that comes with them. Our bumpers were different for multiple reasons but one of them was the safety differences between the US and Japan. Outside of that, I love the passion and commitment to keeping these parts alive! Keep up the great work!
Progress. Not perfection.
