^to release a bumper very quickly to do what ever you need behind it. I wouldn't mind having it held by a few fasteners than having a billion bolts and pop clips

edit: oh lol, I somewhat responded to your other thread in this thread

Nice pics and great cars! T looking powerful

Serves dual purpose for Eric. Quick release and the mounting points for that bumper are broken so they actually help hold the bumper up better.

I think the side splitters look great! It really brings the whole setup together with the front and rear. It is like people who only have the front and rear Aspec, I think it looks funny, you need the sides otherwise it doesn't flow.

Thanks! Not sure which one is thicker.

Password JDM fender fasteners. I kept scraping the bumper and the tabs holding the screws kept breaking and i got tired of fixing it. These things solved that problem forever.

It's easier to get the bumper off now as well.

It's a password jdm fender fastener. I got the idea from a cover car in one of the import magazines. (black rsx) It makes it a lot easier to get the front bumper off.

Eric your tires are looking a little flat again. Hopefully you have a bit more than 23psi in them this time though.

Thanks man!

There are plenty of modifications I could do to it at this point. I could change things up like lots of other people do.

Just get 3m Dinoc, its the same stuff. I have both and I can't tell the difference, and the 3m stuff is a littler cheaper.
