aspec rear

I just got hit by a car the other day and my rear bumper is fucked, so i was thinking i got a aspec rear bumper to relace it instead of fixing damages......has anyone done just rear aspec and not front or sides? i think itll be nice but idk it might look wierd. Post pics if possible. btw its a white tl type s

the whole kit looks the best but it wont look bad or out of place with just the rear. it would look best with the front AND back if you cant afford the sides..or just buy it piece by piece as you can afford. in the end if you buy the rear aspec i would at least try to get the whole kit. if i can find any pics i will post.

yea its between front and back or just back def no sides i dont think they make a big difference.....if insurance pays for the rear bumper then i would have money to get front. Lets hope insurance pays for the back evn tho it was partially my fault for the hit and partialy the old fucks.

they dont make a huge difference, but the high points on the front and back right next to the wheels do match up with the sides and make the look more complete. and they do flair out more instead of wrapping under like stock TL. either way good luck and post some pics once the kit is installed

you can do the rear only, just be sure to remove the mud gaurds on all 4 corners though as putting it on the rear causes the loss of mud-gaurds.

I don't know how I feel about only doing the rear bumper... If anything, leave it stock and have your insurance money left over for a new A Spec front lip!

Here's mine:

Type-S w/ base A-Spec rear, only:







Looks just fine, IMO.

Hope this helps!

True. But it's similar. The front will be the same (stock), and the rear will just have shorter/narrower exhaust openings.

based on what i see, the aspec rear wont make the car lobsided meaning that the back will be lower or anything thatn the front or sides. It just has different bumps and a different look it wont look off or anything correct me if im wrong

That's what it looks like to me. I'm thinking about doing this myself - don't have the $ to get the whole kit at once, plus I'm not sure how I feel about the front lip anyways.
