yeah mine were the same when i took the front super lows out that the magna had when i purchased it. All but the top quater of the bump stops had dissintegrated and what was left didn't look to pretty.

looks good, just get some colour coding on the bumpers and it will be perfect.

i am yet to scrape :P ive been taking it really easy coz of no bumpstops, when i get them in ill prolly be driving harder
under the car i am a dunhill blue 25pack on its side high... i dunno the exact measure of that tho :)

ive got a a few plans on the books to be done... next up is sound, coz it has a huge boot im looking forward to some nice bass :) lol this fornights pay is going to wards sub n headunit, will post up when i get them, and the next fortnightly pay will go towards mono and 4chan amps n then that weekend i will do the install with a few of the boys, should be good.

took this pic when i was walking to my car after work this arvo, i love the mean stance it has... wonder if i should just take the front bar off n mount the big intercooler i have here in my room, just have the pipes going up into the engine bay :P not actually turbo'd hahahaha, nah that would be too ricer :doubt:
