i am currently putting my 4th gen back together and my bumpers support beam is dented in the center and the top part where the grill fits onto is twisted...i have a bumper with the supports already attatched to them but not support beam that goes across! Do i need it or can i just bolt the bumper onto the radiator support and fenders? Please help me out!

 

Yes, you need the bumper for sure...you'll never get it lined up right without it. Plus a bumper is good to have

 

i have the bumper i mean the bar that goes behind it.... i have the things to bolt the bumper up to the radiator support but i dont have the bar behind the bumper

 

The metal bar is the bumper pretty much, the big plastic thing on the outside is the bumper cover.

Is this what you don't have?

 

Wow I never realized the difference was so great, thats a JDM bumper support on top right?

 

yeah thats the jdm in the pic . i want 1 of those lol

 

dang i want one too

 

imagine hiting something with that thing on it would bend like no other, lol but i still want one
It looks like its less than half the weight

 

just dont wreck and you're good!

 

lol i have the JDM one!! NO ****! i bough the bumper for 150 from a guy who was parting out a car... so i dont need the beam

 

he said it was JDM from Password:JDM but i didnt know a sure way to tell bc it has the lip at the bottom but the usdm bumpers have the lips!

 

i have the custom "ghost" reinforcement on my 5th gen. it ways less than a postage stamp.

....which is probably what i will also weigh if i hit something.
