Wanna buy an '02 or '03 Type S and am noticing some of the cars I'm looking at have open brake cooling ducts on the lower part of the front bumper while others have closed ducts. Didn't the Type S come with open/functioning ducts and am I to assume that the cars I look at with the closed ducts have had their front bumpers replaced at some point with the non Type S TL bumper? Can I easily just punch out the duct cover? Thanks for the help!

 

type s and non s bumpers are the same. the 99-01 bumpers are diff. 02-03 bumpers dont have brake cooling ducts, its just for looks, and if u get a cai it helps a bit.

 

There is a small flap on the 02-03 bumper, that from the front just looks like a flat piece of plastic, but if you reach under, its actually a soft plastic/rubber flap that can open, or if you wanted, removed. I dont know if it has any function, but it IS there.

 

Thanks for the info!

 

No Problem. 5 years on this site, and I finally answered a question. lol wooohooo

 

?, i dont get it, what rubber piece in the front bumper? ive had my bumper off many many times and never noticed any rubber piece in teh back or front of the bumper.

 

Look at your avatar pic. you see the black strip looking thing under your fog light??

Heres mine:


Look under the foglight.

off topic..... I love this pic..

 

thats not rubber, thats plastic, and teh only way you cant take them out is to cut it off.
i cut mine out to let more air flow to my icebox

 

 

exactly. that looks good with the gutter guard behind. i left mine alone, just remember messin with it when i swapped my headlights.
