figured I'd show you guys how My bumper Setup is. This may help someone who is considering or trying to decide how to setup their bumpers on a quik-latch setup. Turbo elements (Ihaveturbos) did the fab work and design. I just directed my ideas on this one. lol Hope it helps someone. If not its still kinda cool. Quik-latch.com

That's really nice! I don't really see or understand what you are latching you bumper to the car with. Is it similar to a Dzus fastner?

 

its a push button latch. push the button and it comes off. Ill post a picture of how its made

 

Nice, I like....

 

saw it on facebook... Its pretty sweet!

 

yeah, i dont even have to attach the top of the bumper anymore its solid. I can actually take the fenders off completely and it should stay on. Everything is independently mounted

 

Lookin good MR! When is Tony tuning?

 

I have sex faster than that IJS Good ****!

 

That's baller right there. Nice work.

 

Very nice How much?

 

That thing looks good. So does the button part stay on the mounting part? And only the ring is left on the bumper?

 

i like it!!

 

Naw, Im pretty sure the button stays on the bumper. That pic is probably before he drilled and mounted the button on the bumper.

 

look n good man i love the quick latches wev been using them for over a year and have had zero problems you should be happy with them

for those of you that dont know about them check out http://www.quik-latch.com/
we use the smaller ones, holds hoods and stuff fine

 

looks good!

 

very nice.

 

i swear you wipe your wounds with top shelf liquor, have a slik snuggie and wipe your *** with hunnit dolla bills!!

Coz everything you do is baller. And this thread is no exception.

 

but how strong it is?

 

stupid strong. like 200lbs per latch or something like that.

My main reason to do them is for simplicity and quickness. Last year the few times i made it to the track taking my bumper off was just a pita. Then when i loaded the car back on the trailer it was a pain. Then id always have to put my bumper in the bed of my truck cause it takes too much time to put it back on when trailering it. Last night when i loaded it took me 20 sec in the dark and just feeling around till it snapped in while on the trailer. Didnt have to turn the wheels or anything just snap it. That's worth the money for me. I dont have the patience for dealing with clamps and fastners. I need easy lol, keeps me calm lol.

the nut keeps the latch on the bumper and the stud is attached to the inside

 

i love the ease of use without a tool to remove the bumper, but just hate the bulk of the latch itself. there are just some things you cant live without dzus.

 

nice or you can just use Zeus fitting.

 

I actually think they look cleaner then the dzus fasteners.

And LMAO Pootie.

 

yeah i think they are cleaner too. No rivets and whatever else is envolved in those. Thats just me though. I wanted it if i asked my wife to take the bumper off, she ask what tool and I say, your finger, "Push the damn button". I dont think they are bulky. They are about the size of quater, just about a 1/8thin bigger if that. with maybe a 1/4in rise off the hood or bumper.

 

iv seen to many dzus's fail good in tight on the line and open and loose after a pass

 

what about the mounting from the back side? paneling plays a big roll in fastners. i just cant see this being more beneficial then dzus. i love them for hoods, and fenders but like a kick panel or electrical panels on a floor board wouldnt be ideal. look heavy. but im just picky like that.

but great write up on them.

bumpers for sure i would use these. paneling not so much. also how does the quick latch tension itself to the piece that is being mounted?
