Interested in the flares, stock style bumpers(flared), rockers(flared), and so on. Their prices seem almost too good.

I just put rennspeed stock ft and rear bumpers on and they did not take much adjustment for a good fit. finish is good and they come with the brackets. They take a little shimming and grinding but they look nice. when I get it of the stands I will post pics.

I've heard mixed comments on other stuff from Rennspd...
I bought the flared fenders from Rennspd. They look nice and the layup is good quality, but they need some work. For me that is not a problem. Biggest reason for choosing them was that they were the only ones that could ship the stuff to my place at reasonable cost. If I were in the states, I'd get the Getty stuff though. I don't think I ever heard any bad reports about their stuff. F/g is not hard to work with, but the time and agrevation you save yourself making f/g parts fit, would be well worth some extra $$$ |

I had a bad experience with the Rennspeed front gt valance full of cracks, wavey, poor fit. I order through Getty now you get what you pay for.

Hammer to fit. Paint to match. ![]() ![]() Group: Members Posts: 353 Joined: 20-May 03 From: East Peoria, Illinois Member No.: 713 Region Association: None ![]() |
I'm having fiberglass bumpers and valances fitted to the car from Rennspeed. The fiberglass is nice and thick, but none of the pieces fit well. The rear valance was actually a good 2 inches short on the sides when mounted, necessitating end pieces to make them fit - and it seems the brackets for the bumpers were just glassed on without any thought to alignment. Maybe I just got a bad batch?

I got F/R stock style bumpers, flares and flared rockers from them. The flares and rockers went right on. The bumpers needed a little work.
Yeah, I think they just glass on the metal mounting brackets. They holes were close, but both mine needed to be shimmed a bit. Not a big deal. The front bumper went right on. The rear needed to be trimmed up a bit. Otherwise, the look great and fit well. I wanted to get the glass lids next. I think I will too, I have been happy so far. |

I have bought lots of stuff from Peter at Rennspeed, I have been very happy with everything I have got from him. Nice things about it is I can just go pick the stuff up, no shipping.

Rennspd.com
I've got fenders, quarters, bumpers, rockers, front valence and door skins from him, gonna get the trunk/hood & targa top to finish off the deal. Mine is a race car, so perfect fit isn't as crucial, although I want it to look nice. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Pete is also a very nice guy. That alone is worth dealing with him. Has anyone already purchased/fit lids yet? It is sort of the next thing to do on my list. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
