Laser front Bumper and Front Mount

[BaddAssGst]

Any of you guys using the 1gb Laser front bumper with your front mount set-up? I don't know whether or not to hack the bumper or to try and find a black Talon bumper with the grey bottom. I'm trying to figure out how to cut it so it doesn't look like shit yet still have airflow to the radiator. Any suggestions? Pics? search results?

I think the laser bumper is the best looking of all 1g's. I wouldn't put a talon bumper on, it would throw of the look of the car. Believe it or not but the there is actually a lot of airflow through the bumper. And the laser keeps the FMIC hidden pretty well. The bumper only covers about an inch of the top of my Punishment core.

I have the same setup and had to trim the bumper pretty good. It looks great though. But starting this weekend im doing alot of body work and switching my Laser to a 1GB Talon all around.

there was no modification done to use the talon bumper skin, but i used the talon side skirts along with the bumper to give the car a wider look.. but i kept the back bumper and tail lights to show the heritage of the car, our lasers are rare. lets be real, no one bought them, because they are as ugly as sin. compared to it's sibling's the eclipse and talon.. the laser has alot left to be desired in the looks department. all the eclipses and talons i have ever bought were from people my age in good condition. the one laser i bought was from an old cuban farmer that used to pull cow sh!t in it.. people have no respect for our lasers

Today i'm going to pick up my 5th 1st gen dsm that i've owned. There is a common theme in the responses of my dsm supporting friends when i call them to tell them i'm going to pick up my next 1G. When i tell them it's a laser, "oh god a laser" and such things as "ew a laser, why not a talon or eclipse" are the responses i get. Honestly i couldn't agree more, in my opinion the Laser is the red headed step child of the 1g's and i have already nick named the car "Ugly Ducking", due to the poor cosmetic appearance by comparison. I could care less about the looks of the car as long as the body is straight and the car runs strong. This laser will be the biggest sleeper dsm i've ever owned and my white 93 tsi awd fooled some people in it's time too. So yes to you laser owners, these things are quite hideous, but that just adds to the sleeper effect and most importantly, it still has a 4G63T which is all that matters on this forum.

Old thread, but good cutting suggestions.


I currently have 4 "speed holes" in my bumper cover. I plan on joining the upper/lower-most points on the circles for two oblong vents.
