You can do it with anything, its a matter of folding that piece up and re bolting it again. Or something like that.

That looks so friggin sick. I'm definitely going to attempt to do this bumper tuck. I'll post up my pics and the experience and let you know how this DIY mod goes for me.

I've got the Injen Tru Dual exhaust ordered, just waiting on some other parts to come in.

Someone should do a DIY bumper tuck.

I also been considering doing this cheap mod ever since I got my Nismo exhaust last year.I guess there is several ways to do this....just tuck the bumper to the bumper aluminum support.Using tapping screws to hold or black plastic bumper connectors or cable zip ties.

Most guys who have done this mod have the single exhaust system or the HKS.

Bumper tuck will look nice if you have the right exhaust. It'll look beautiful with HKS hi-power, but will look s***ty with stock or nismo with big mufflers.

Hey Creepingonchrome did you have to buy anything at all to do this? Did you just use the same screws from underneath and just re-attach them thru the bumper? Or did you buy new screws?

I think I just answered my own question....sorry.. Just saw where you wrote you used the factory bolts.

ITS SOOO easy...first mod for sure...

Post by **sluggoZ** » Tue Mar 17, 2009 7:41 am

Even though I have the Nismo exhaust...I still think it looks great!It all sparkles from underneath.

since i work for a toyota,scion, bmw dealership i have all kind of bolts off of bumpers and body parts.i just found bolts with screw thread pushed the bumper up drilled holes and then tightnd the bolts. i might add two more for a uniform look.and it just has two little screws and two plastic pops . its real easy and will look really bad with stock exhaust.

I agree, the stock exhaust would look ugly....but what is your opinion with the Nismo exhaust?

Here's what it looks like with no never dull or tuck...I did sell the rear skirt!

Post by **RCAnismo** » Fri Mar 20, 2009 8:55 am

Oh man I would definitely go for it. With that sweet canister with Nismo written right on it, you need to show that off!

That rear skirt looks good too tho I think, Why did you take it off?

A bumper tuck with the HKS Hi-Power looks awesome. I think it would look sick with the MCR exhaust system!
