the only thing I would say not to do is the front spoiler. I did that on my elco with the tucked bumper and While it did come out nice after building the bumper up to the lever of the spoiler leaving seams so it doesn't crack. I would run the newer extended tucked front bumpers that go all the way down to the bottom of the fender. The bumpers from a couple years back would stop like an inch shy of the bottom of the bumper but the new ones got that covered. But thats just my opinion bro.


I strongly agree!!! I think im goin to leave the front lower sPoiler out!! There are two front bumpers..one has a 2" space that need the front spoiler to cover it and theres the newer one ur talking about that covers all ends and needs nothing no mods, just bolt right kn...even the guy that im getting them from mentioned that to me..good looking out ...no front spoiler..something different...thanks brah...feeling it all the way.. :wink:

Yeah just trying to save a headache i spent alot of hours on my elco attempting to make stuff look right. The only way I will ever run another front spoiler with a tucked bumper is if they are both fiberglass and I glass them together. My elco I had the urethane spoiler. My mali has the newer extended front bumper.


Nice!!! Good looking out...saves me $120 bucks...and i was going to ask on here about it...glad u spoke up before i bought it...thanks big dawg!! :wink:
