Suspected cause
Well I suspect the lower portion will disappear when I do the rear aero upgrades so no point in putting mesh in there

Suggestion
I did a cosmetic repair with touch-up paint but it still shows (if you're looking for it).

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Looks really nice. I'd love to loose those ugly bumperettes. I've got a question. Whether this is CF or fiberglass, neither are flexible. It seems like it wouldn't take much to crack it. And it appears like it sticks out from the bumper, so there would be little protection. At least the bumperette's skin flexes a little. I had a low impact hit on mine a few years and only got a few scratches. I did a cosmetic repair with touch-up paint but it still shows (if you're looking for it). But I figured that if I went ahead and did a quality fix/paint/replacement I'd just get it hit again. So I learned to live with it.
By your own words "ugly bumperettes".... not replacing them with a nice tidy product like this for statistically insignificant hypothetical reasons is silly, IMHO.... just do it!
So I guess your implied answer is "yes, it will shatter". Placing something expensive & fragile in an area that is supposed to absorb minor impact is just asking for trouble.
The mesh inserts look WAY better than a tacked-on-piece that sits proud of the bumper. Your mod looks like it could be factory...and it would look even better if the vents in the lower valance beside the
exhaust
were black mesh, too.
Nicely done Joshua - how are these held on - do you have other photos, perhaps with a direct on view from the rear? Would you make more of these? I like the OP's pieces, particularly in CF, but agree with the suggestion that something recessed has a more OEM look.
Thanks! I don't want to hi-jack this post. I don't want to spam the group either. That said we can make them if there's interest. Feel free to email or PM me. I'll add some pics to my thread in 987 mods with better detail of the vents. I'm traveling right now so later tonight or tomorrow I'll get the pics up.
i know this is an older post but i like the overall look of your replacement onecks... are you still happy with this mod? any issues
Joshua, do you have any closer photos of yours? that looks really nice too.
I sure hope this is you guys. Otherwise someone is already stealing your idea and pictures.
