Time for a CS Bumper?

Taking the wife out to dinner tonight and some a young kid blows through a turn only lane!! Looks like the damage is contained to just the bumper and grill (possible underlying bracket(s)).

Thinking it may be time for a CS bumper....

Thoughts??

That sucks!

 

That really does suck. Luckily it wasn't the headlight. The CS bumper looks really good. Than your going to have to get the sides and the rear diffuser too. The trickle effect begins.

 

Anyone got any recommendations for the bumper and/or skirts? Looks like OEM CS bumper is around 6K!!

 

CS Bumper and rocker time!!!!

 

CA bumper sounds great but that is a really light damage; that bumper could easily be fixed.

 

While it could possibly/probably be fixed, I think the labor involved would offset the cost of a new bumper. I would rather have a new bumper thnt a repaired bumper as the damage and/or paint would at some point show tell tale signs of the incident.

The car had perfect paint (not one chip!) and I want to return it to it's prior glory.

While I'm in this predicament, why not do the CS bumper (and possibly rockers) upgrade as it's not that much more to add.

 

F Chatter "anxpert" has the add-on pieces to change your bumper (and rockers) to CS spec. I would consider having them added to your bumper and getting it fixed and painted at the same time. Aftermarket bumpers scare me. You can PM him or search for the threads he has in here about these parts.

Sorry to see


I think if you get the CS bumper you need the side skirts too

 

Aren't u charging his insurance?

 

I am, they will/should pay for the cost of a standard bumper and I will have to pay the difference for the upgraded bumper

 

Doesn't look too bad. I say do it! I like to turn car misfortune into upgrades...CS bumper is hot.

 

Just wanted to back up Kevin and say that, even the best aftermarket bumpers, will require a solid body shop to massage them into place.

Good luck!

 

Mark, if you want OEM parts for your 360 maybe this could be of interest for you:
ORG Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale Stoßstange Frontschürze Front Bumper | eBay


obs: I became aware of the missing sidemarkers on the euro Version bumper after intially posting the link. Don`t know if you can do without them.

 

I would want US spec...

 

There is always another part you need when you do this kind of a project.

The bumper itself.

The challenge type grills.

The "snout" (The air conduction unit from the grill to the radiator is different)

Maybe a mounting bracket or two.

I would definitely do it.

Glad no one was injured.

 

poor kid. probably soiled his pants after hitting a Ferrari. lucky that he's insured.

 

If you get to retain the damaged bumper that's an easy sale as-is on eBay, you can probably bridge to some of the cost of the upgrade (if it matters to you). That is definitely repairable and someone may want to buy it.

 

Freight could be a killer.
