Does anybody else have the Tbone racing rear bumper installed on the V3 Senton? I installed it and hate the way it looks, maybe I installed incorrectly? Any ideas?

Regardless of looks, I like the design of the brace not being attached directly to the bumper. Is it attached to the dif case or a separate block?

It attaches with the 4 screws used to secure the diff case to the frame on the bottom of the truck. Yea it’s a good concept...it just sticks out wayyyy to far and too low IMO. Didn’t know if this is the way it’s supposed to look...

If it comes with 4 drilled wholes wich exactly fit the 4 holes in the chassis.. Where you bolt the diff case on.. You did it right.. Cant be mounted in any other way.. I guess you have to live with the way it sits and looks.. Or else.. Dump it in the trash and buy an RPM or POS

This is the second post about tbone fitment issues. I don't think I will be buying stuff from them until they get their quality control under control.

IMHO.. This is not about fitment.. Cause it fits the way its suppost to fit..
Its someones opinion.. About how it sits on the truck.. And that person, in this case, doesn't like it..

Looks right to me...I personally don’t like any of the bumpers on the market but function over form

Goin through the pictures again.. It seems to me there is a 3 screw/bolt connection between the part that goes under the diff/chassis part and the actual bumper piece.. Those two parts overlap..
Right there in the middle
Is there a way to connect them the other way around? As of now.. The bumper part is attached underneath the diff/chassis part..
What if.. You connect them with the bumper part on top of the diff/chassis part?
In that case you at least raise it a small bit

Update...I got a response from Tbone racing and they said it “flattened out during shipping”. Anyways I took that last piece off MikeNLD was talking about and boiled it to make the plastic softer...then I bent the crap out of it. Not only that, but the piece that was free floating had to be shortened, so I cut about 1/2 inch off of it. Best of both worlds, functionality and it looks way better!
So this is the piece I boiled and bent...
And this is the piece I had to cut and drill my own holes to make it fit...
And then some pics of the completed work with the body on...looks way better in my opinion!
