Sky_vinz Clutched February 16, 2010 Share February 16, 2010 Hi, am tempted to get one of these. Any recommendations for a customised one? Normally stick-on using adhesive, or by rivet? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaNibOy Clutched February 16, 2010 Share February 16, 2010 1st pic is rivet, 2nd is stick on. I tink rivet better cos scared ppl might steal if u stick it on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky_vinz Clutched February 16, 2010 Author Share February 16, 2010 (edited) SaNibOy: Yep, think so too. Unless use super glue. Either ways are irreversible. Icebrush79: Thanks. Have sent them an email. Any idea the price range? Done yours there? Edited February 16, 2010 by Sky_vinz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesensation Neutral Newbie February 16, 2010 Share February 16, 2010 I recommend that you go with the riveted type as the temperature is pretty high at the exhaust, so I doubt the adhesive type can hold long. Mine dropped off after 2 years. If the budget permits fabricate your entire rear bumper in carbon fibre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky_vinz Clutched February 16, 2010 Author Share February 16, 2010 Cheesensation: Entire bumper? That's gonna be costly! Haha. Cant do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuan 6th Gear February 16, 2010 Share February 16, 2010 Bro, check with Robson Design and get them advise you accordingly. But I reckon that the fumes might just "darken" your shield surface after a while and after some time, you might either need cleaning on the surface and replace with a new one.... Maybe by that time, you already changed to Evo liaoz. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky_vinz Clutched February 16, 2010 Author Share February 16, 2010 (edited) Yuan: Hopefully lo. A completely stock white Evo9 Gsr will do. =P For now, I guess I'll just maintain the shield along with my car body once I get it installed. Minimum weekly thorough car wash, monthly wax. That's what I'm doing now. Fully DIY. Edited February 16, 2010 by Sky_vinz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the detailing products sold by maddriver in this forum are quite good. I am personally using Duragloss products for my car. Very satisfied.

Sky_vinz Clutched February 17, 2010 Author Share February 17, 2010 (edited) Yuan: I see. Was thinking, if using stock exhaust or exhaust with 2inch outlet, along with this exhaust shield, is it going to look very rice?

In my opinion, it would look nicer if your exhaust can contain a tennis ball......Wah...Very fierce then with bassy sound.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea the price range? Done yours there? Didn't do mine.. cuz they need my entire bumper to fabricate... (because FN2R is not so common) For your case (I presume its a lancer??), should be quite fast... Price range prolly around 500 max but most likely cheaper.. bout 300 I'm guessing.. Go down to robson for a look bro... many good looking chicks there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiadaw 6th Gear April 11, 2010 Share April 11, 2010 Btw, why do people need the shield? I never have soot forming from any of the cars I have, or bumper melting. I do see often black soot at bumper of Truly Asia cars. I assume these car are using dummy cat hence the soot. Or is is for looks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xefera 6th Gear April 11, 2010 Share April 11, 2010 maybe applicable to engines that are running too rich? and if yours is a light coloured cars, after a while will see black marks on the bumper above the exhaust tip. but all in all, its more cosmetic than necessary ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
