    Default Difference between ADM rear bumper and JapSpec bumper

    Ok, so i want to delete the number plate lights from my ADM rear bar.

    Is there any other difference between the ADM rear bars (with adm number plate lights)
    and the Jap spec rear bars (without the number plate lights in the bar)

    What is your best way of filling the holes? I am guessing similar plastic bits cut to exact shape and glued in? Sort of plastic? I am guessing the best glue would be one that sort of eats/melts the plastic.

    Or bog and sand and paint. I would prefer a plastic weld fix.

    Qbond works well on bumpers. Melts the plastic and sticks together with the cement.

    already sorted it

    plastic welder.....

    due to it being a polypropalene (or some shit like that) it wont glue well.

    so cut out a blank to the same size, weld it in.

    then sand it back smooth (no bog needed then)

    then special primer has to be used to get the paint to stick, and repaint it.

    i just wanted to know differences, cause i think this will be heaps cheaper than trying to buy a jdm rear bar which has no holes

    ADM is basically the same as zenki (early) JDM plus number plate lights. The kouki (later) JDM bar is slightly different, in that it has 2 contour lines running around it, compared to just the one on the zenki.

    Very early bumpers are dark grey. The rest are black. Just a random fact.
