Default Anyone know if theres a "blank front bumper cover" out there??

we are getting to the end of our build and started trimming the bumper for the intercooler.

Im looking for a "blank" front bumper. IN the sense that is has no grill opening, but will match our stock fenders, hood, grill, ect.....

Just like a factory bumper cover with no grill opening.

Anyone know of such a thing?

no, only the aftermarket 3 piece wide fronts have that option.

With the common rim choices these days, the tires stick out 3-5" out the fenders. Sending you a bumper in a box will cost as much as a full kit. Why not just get the 3 piece kit and it will serve the purpose of covering these wide tires as well.

our car is a street car. Itll do ok at the track, but 90% of its life will be on street tires.

you can make your own out of a stock front bumper. Kinda like Sipe Brothers EG before they changed to the 3 piece front-end.

But it would be nice to have a fiberglass "stock" front bumper with no grille or no openings.
And not widened at all.

agreed especially me being with a crx, and trying to run a descent sized intercooler.

rules for the class
Import or domestic compact car bodies allowed. Current tags and registration required. One piece and widened front ends prohibited. Bumpers can not be removed. No cutting allowed for weight reduction or wheel clearance purposes. All tail lights and head lights required.

so we are kinda handicapped (if an ef) with what exactly we can fit for a cooler
