A favor from ones with the stillen rear kit Thanks!

Hello everyone, i was wondering if someone can do a big favor for me and measure the distance between the flat part of the rear bumper where is curves down to the top of the stillen rear kit. I got a huge scratch toward the bottom of my bumper and wondering if i a stillen kit would cover it up. thanks!!

Happy Early New Years

If its near the bottom of the rear bumper and your going to mold the stillen lip into the bumper then yes. Your going to have to paint the rear bumper to match the lip... so might as well touch up that scratch in the molding/sanding/wet sanding process.

I'm just at work and I have no way to measure so hopefully this helps.

well i was planning on getting a kit from another org member that is already painted black, just trying to save a few bucks. either paint the whole bumper or get a stillen rear and sides for the same amount of money or less.

Bump for some numbers on new years! happy new years!! thanks

I'd suggest doing it right and mold the lip in and get that scratch and other some blemishes or nicks out. My .2 cents. It sounds like you're picky like me with the little things, if its a small scratch let it go. If not I recommend doing it right and molding it in...
