Gerb!!! I was had the quick release on my car when I bought it however I removed the bumper and used command strips+crazy glue one the inside of the bumper cover....was then able to use pull tie on the backside so that it was hidden after that I filled the existing holes and resprayed with rattle can and no more holes plus my bumper is now secure and it looks OEM
Damn Gerb I've been watching you these past 5 years and you are still loyal to this car. I had a 2007 Si, 2015 Si and a 2017 Si I had the last 4 years. Just traded it in for an Acura and now I'm looking for another 2007-2011 Si sedan. Great work man. The 8th gen was always my favorite Si
I painted my callipers orange as well didnt even notice you did yours orange too! Lol def gon get these quick releases for my bumper. Idk why but these 8th gens it’s always the passenger side fender that always pokes out lol
i don’t see the hate 🤷🏾♂️ it’s preference. personally i like them - they help remove the bumper when working on a car. but they also kinda look a little ugly in my opinion even tho i had it on my rsx, nobody complained but that’s JUST preference! i’m 50:50
This is one "mod" I don't get. Why? Isn't the rest of the bumper still bolted in the factory locations? How often to you need to take your bumper off? Sure hope you painted the bare metal or at least put some clear finger nail polish on it
@@eddie_fk8_R got ya... I would just install a new radiator when doing a turbo before they are CHEAP and NOT do those quick release things. Just not my thing.
I think that’s ricer, that like for them fresh high schoolers who drive bucket cars, should of just bought new bracket , but it’s your car 🤷🏾♂️ or would of looked little cleaner with Quik-latch bumper release
@@TheGerbsteve I’ve got a black 7th gen EP3 Si with K20A3. Tryna do a EP3 type r body conversion and possibly gonna do K20A2 or Z1 swap since it’s basically plug n play with kpro, good content tho brother I love your car
You forgot to show how long it takes to get the nut on the back of the Allen bolt in the metal Fender side. You literally jumped right past that 2 hours that it took you to get that tighten down. Why you got to lie to everybody dude??
I hate when people complain about the bands breaking.. when clearly this is not a once all fix all... Invest in more securement bands dingalings..Duhhhhh
You should probably get some touch up paint and paint over the hole so it dont rust
Most definitely
I would of just got a new bumper ... looks way cleaner without them ricey things
RIGHT
Eh people have there preferences 🤷🏽♂️ at the end of the day its his car
It’s not just for looks if you take off your bumper often it really comes in handy
@@bige7186 yeah but tbh you see mostly high schoolers rocking those, when you older adult we go for that clean in simple stock look
@@El_payaso_. to each there own

I feel you on the fender part. Was hesitant to cut my fenders for the sidemarkers but we got it done lol
Quick, clean install video. Nice job Gerb 👏

Nice bro!! Only thing I would do is spray a lil rust protection👍😎
They came out better than I thought! I was thinking that too.
That was the first thing I did when I got my fg2 bro
Your intro is straight heat my guy🔥🔥

That's wild bro...
Have to say, I appreciate your support! I'd be down to have some fun against your k20
Just seen my hanging today found a new project
This is one "mod" I don't get. Why?
Isn't the rest of the bumper still bolted in the factory locations? How often to you need to take your bumper off? Sure hope you painted the bare metal or at least put some clear finger nail polish on it
When it comes to working on this specific model si you have to continuously remove the bumper
@@eddie_fk8_R remove it to do what?
@@johnnyturbo8460 to be able to install new CAI or replace filter for CAI, radiator, if you go turbo you gotta take it off to install intercooler
@@eddie_fk8_R got ya... I would just install a new radiator when doing a turbo before they are CHEAP and NOT do those quick release things. Just not my thing.
@@johnnyturbo8460 ya I get what you mean, if only the car had more engine space that way we don’t install these
I think that’s ricer, that like for them fresh high schoolers who drive bucket cars, should of just bought new bracket , but it’s your car 🤷🏾♂️ or would of looked little cleaner with Quik-latch bumper release
Had these for awhile, so I wanted to run them.

XXR 527's bro
Came out 🔥 bro. Inspired me to order a set for my clapped out bumper Lol
Glad I could inspire you man, you’ll like them 🤙🏼
Should of went quik-latch bro. Looks cleaner, just as effective and you don't have to drill into the fender
I know, I know.. just had these already and they been sitting around for like two years
Came out clean bro 😎🥲
Thanks mane 🙏🏼
@@TheGerbsteve welcome my boi 💯🙏
Nice install ..
Thanks bro
Let’s lock it up bro I’m down in new Britain CT
Depends what you have
Bands will break eventually. I had mine zip tie.
Good thing I have zip ties on deck
Thas' why you should've invested in more securement bands,. Duhhhh
Bought a working drill, battery, and charger off of OfferUp and a drill bit kit from Walmart for $70 total😉
I love offerup... Great score man. I'll have to check and see what I can find
