quick release front bumper
 

Has anyone done this? It seems pretty useful at the track, and was wondering if anyone has done this. If so can you provide any tips/pictures?

I need this. I want this. Tomorrow. Today. Now. If someone is willing to make a kit like this, I'll be 100% in.

Those Evo X QR are bad ass. Price needs to come down a bit though.

We use the http://www.quik-latch.com/ and Camlocs the most, and a few Dzus...hard to find anyone at the shop that like Dzus.

the only thing that i realized is that, if someone wanted your front bumper, they can just take it haha

you still bolt the bumper from the top. That price for the evox quick release is way to much, why spend that much when you can just spend $10 on these http://www.ebay.com/bhp/bumper-quick-release

^ because then you have to drill into the fender as well.

I had the quik-latch ones on my sti. They were awesome. I'd go with them just like @Gunman suggested.

you dont need to drill with the quick latches?

you do but just the bumper. Those other ones you have to drill in the bumper and the fender, lol.

I mean you still are making holes, but the less the better, to me at least.

what makes you take your bumper off so many times to need this?

I was wondering the same... Quick access to the intercooler, if you even have one? Granted, two of the 3 cars shown above don't look like they have or will ever see a track day anyways. :iono:

A lot of show car wieners do it for the "race car" look.

Purposefully it makes it easy to access ic piping, oil coolers, etc. if you break something at the track, or to be able to quick pull your bumper and show off your build at events.

Toxicfab is known for making these for the evo crowd. My 2IS bumper was sagging from broken bumper tabs and I retrofitted the bracket to mount to the fender to better secure the edges of the bumper. Easy install and easy to work with.

I wanted to do it to try and make my bumper sit flush against the fender again.

I started making my own last night. Just need to get the quick release part.

so its very easy to jack up the front. Im only lowered an inch and a half and my jack doesnt even fit. I can go buy a lower profile jack or put it on 2x4, but this would be a much simpler solution.

just bought em!

I'm thinking the mini quick-latch is the perfect solution for mounting the APR GT bumper.

I take mine off for drifting, makes it stupid easy.

There is a slammed IS250 that just added these a couple weeks ago. Now I know what they are :w00t:

They hold up fairly well, but it may need occasional adjustments. Aero catch latches are a more secure solution, but difficult to mount on some bumpers. The small button latches blend well and don't scream race car since they look like parking proximity sensors.

Anyone can provide a how to ? I'd like to do this for towing purposes and also when I need an alignment i want to make sure that I clear and don't ruin the front lip. Thanks guys !

I'm using them on my APR bumper which is stiff fiberglass. My application of these just discarded factory brackets at the corners and I drilled through bumper into fender metal.

subbed. Im thinking of doing something like this, just not sure best option yet.

what was your cost on the quick latch ? and which onedid you get ? thanks man really appreciate it

DIY for the win!! seriously this is awesome. im reading like 7 different threads and my brains getting scrambled so forgive this question but why did you need to do this

So he can take the bumper off quickly?

what**** not why
my bad

I'm onna devise my own hidden solution. messing with the headlights onthese cars is a b!tch because of the bumper.
