I am putting a Urethane Blitz kit on my 95 Talon right now. Did you guys fabricate a support bracket/brace to hold the lower part of the front and rear bumper covers from flexing from the air movement. Also I'm guessing everyone leaves the inner front fender wells out? Please let me know what you did and if you have a pic that would be great. Thanks!!!
 
I have a fiberglass front bumper but yes, I fabricated brackets to hold the lower end out for bracing it. I attached the bracket to the fog light mounts. Sorry don't have a picture right now.
 
I have the blitz bodykit on my car, but instead of a bracket, i used extra layers of fiberglass to beef up the bottom and keep it from flexing. By the way, i still have all of my inner fenders on the car, but it took alot of work to make them fit right. IMO the car looks unfinished without its inner fenders.
 
Thanks guys. I'm guessing I'll make some brackets up out of small round metal tubing and flatten the ends for bolts. After I finish mounting the front bumper up I'll have to see if I can find a way to keep the inner fenders. Your right it doesnt look complete without them. If anyone else has advice or pics please let me know.
