I took me 2 years to wear out the stock bumper, but a lot of people do like the rpm bumper. I didnt get it because it sticks out too far for me.
I run the bumper, never seemed to have issues with it sticking out, but if I ever smack into the face of a jump, I'm sure glad it's there...
I used to use 400 grit to redo my slipper pads, then I had a sheet of 80 lying around and used that.. I like the way they work using the coarser sandpaper..
I've broken almost everything, but not any part of the upper shock mount/bushing assembly.. I'm concerned that maybe it's not installed correctly? I don't believe this is a wear item. Although, even as bad as I am, I don't break a wing every few days either.
And the kids are too young to play with my car... maybe when they turn 16...
