Anton's RS2Coupe project

There are no retaining tabs so I would have to fab something which shouldn't be a hassle.Thanks for the detailed pics Anton, all the differences between the stock S2 item and this are now vey clear. I didn't realise it was a fibre glass part.
Another thing I just noticed is that it doesn't have the 3/4 retaining tags for the sound deadener/undertray, I take it you either run without or fab something yourself?
Heres another detail I've just picked up on, the pic below has two horizontal vents on either side while yours does not? Are there two versions of the bumper maybe?
I noticed that difference. I also found pics of a bumper like mine and one absolutely different. It has a an extension that eliminates the under headlight trims and it is all smooth.Attached FilesLeave a comment:

Hope these help. The bumper is definitely fiberglass. It is sturdier than an OEM S2 bumper and seems to be approximately 6lbs heavier moving it around.Attached FilesLeave a comment:

Yes Barry has been helping me for years now. I have grown to admire and respect him. He has become a super friend of mine and I've never met him in person
Mixing the MTM bumper with ABT just seems right and I hope to test it out. Thanks for the kind words DJ.
Received the wheels safe and sound today so I took a pic of it next to my future project car's wheels
Thanks Rob. I am extremely happy with our transaction.
Let me know when my help is needed
Also some pics for NUVO of the MTM bumper.Attached FilesLast edited by rs2coupe; 24 July 2007, 04:56.Leave a comment:

Thanks DJ. It looks like it has been painted once. I do not have the fender flares but I do plan to put this bumper on an ABT C5 CoupeGreat bumper very rare that RSR Clubsport.
{there are the only a few one,s left that got the RSR nose
}
very light too because the bumper was made from
Carbon fiber.
did you got it new because it looks that it was never fitted before
and prepainted red?
do you also have the RSR clubsport fenders to make it fit ?
the fittings where fenders and bumper come together
are much different then orginal at some points.
ps: be carefull with that bumper its an MTM legend
soon with those wide fenders
