Anyone have pictures of a coupe with a PIU front bumper with eibachs springs fitted on 17" alloys, if you do how is the ride height ?

Basically I'm having trouble with the coupe been a tad to low with the cada front bumper frown

Either have to get standard springs which will raise the car up or a different bumper, just want to make sure I don't have the same problem with the PIU.

Cheers smile

Or if you have the above bumper (PIU) how much lower than the standard is it ?

I'll try and get hold of autods meantime.

Cheers smile

Looking at the lines on the bumper and the curves of the bonnet I hsve to say the bumper on the silver coupe looks a better product, where can these be bought from Flaviutti? PUI is a bumper I would consider owning over any other, they look more natural than the others

I remember why peolpe started buying the AutoDS PUI... It was the only one!
It was impossible to get a deal with the original manufacturer in Italy.

i think the genuine PIU bumpers are very rare, hence why most people that have them get them fron auto-ds

I don't see what the issue is? The PIU look good, nothing wrong with them. So what if they look a little different from the Italian original? They're still one of the best looking modified bumpers out there!

why is impossible??? only because the original bumper is built with completely different criteria and with a totally different quality fiberglass and then all of this takes a justifiable price higher


i prefeer fit only the best quality on my car... not copy not bad quality


(i can find a chinese turbocharger for example... but someone wanna try to fit it???? )

I'm sure many people would have bought the original PUI bumper if they only could. It looks great!
Understand?

IMO you are sounding very childish.

Already asked you this but what the hell, I'll ask again ...What's the price difference since you are so knowledgeable on this.

I'll post some pics of mine for you sparkyman smile

I have standard shocks, Eibach lowering springs but with the 16" wheels, the pics might give you an idea. My PIU bumper is from Auto DS and it's top quality wink

I can comment that the car is not low as I would have expected, so I'm not worried while driving over bumps over here.

If you need some other pics from specific angles, let me know.
