I would just get a new bumper cover and looks like trunk lid. People are geting rid of lids all the time for carbon fiber on here and other forums. Up the injectors and the fuel pump, depending on how much power you are planing to make.What are you goles?

what are you going to tune with if you get those injectors and pump? Just asking bc I didn't see in your list what you was going to use

And about your bumper. I wouldn't try and fix it, I'd just order a JDM rear like I did from driveline. It's a little pricey but its worth it IMO. Or I'm sure you can find a "TB"
used bumper on here for fairly cheap.

I agree about the bumper;

Its really up to you but as for me - id use my money on power mods rather than cosmetics; at least for the time being.

At least thats my priority in terms of building my car and the image I have of it.

I guess my suggestion is to think about your overall budget and where you want to be and asses where to actually spend your money on.

Bumper is toast. Don't even bother.

GL with the car....... What turbo are you waiting for? I personally wouldn't do a mini battery if I were you. They are the worst. Relocate to the trunk, get better weight distribution, save money and actually have a car that starts..
