Hi guys, I was trying to find a place where I can get those quick release bumper fasteners for easy removal of aero. Anyone know where I can get something like that or maybe a good lowes or home depot equivalent. These are what I am talking about: (picture of MS!3 's car)

eastcoastS14

ThatGuy

Have you gone to Home Depot or Lowe's and looked?

they appear to be toolbox latches. found on those diamond plate pickup truck tool boxes and regular portable tool boxes.

Wrong!!! My buddy has those latches on his front/rear bumper and his carbon hatch on his fastback.Never had a problem with em.

please post more info thats what i was interested in those plastic clips not those metal latches.

lflkajfj12123

you just drill holes and put the clips in it and wrap zipties around it

done and done

still looks like ass

These guys usually have a great assortment of Race car latches and fastners.
I'm thinking they should have something similar to what you are looking for.

So do the one's you posted. Any external fastener looks like ass.

Just ziptie your shit at the stock bolt holes, or don't be a lazy-ass when it's time to remove your aero.

crawling under the bumper to re ziptie them is too much work :ghey:

external zipties for the quickness

and you when your car is lowered so much that you have to roll it onto 2x4's to even get a jack under it to take off the aero

external zipties save time and its not a pain in the ass to work on your car as much

ms!3

hmm never saw this thread. lowes and home depot don't carry the latches. i picked them up at a local hardware store. work for me.

PRADOgy

Ima have to say that is a good point..

clips look bad imo. i'd just stick to zipties.

PRADOgy

Looks like what you did is drill 2 holes on the panel, and one on the bumper.put bolts in em. then zip tied them around the bolts.. and zip tied were your supose to bolt them behind the rear wheel right?

I think you use rubber bands for those janks.

I used to have a bumper with clips like the OP

my bumper got taken off and my IC stolen.

something to think about, if it's easy for you, it's easy for others too.

hahaha, yeah i would never consider leaving my car out in the open if I had those style latches. Learned that back in junior high when quick releases on bike seats were all the craze, had to stand up the whole way home.

or they'll steal the bumpers and modify them on their civics

unicoladron

i lol'd at work hahahah

i took my seat off and put it in my locker

soapgun, on both the front and rear bumper, how many actual mount points are there?...it seams like the rear could get easily ripped off. did you ever have a problem with like a curb pulling one off or just high speed?

ive also got 2 of the 4 bolts holding it in the center of the rad support. just to line it up with the hood. Im not really worried about the pignose anyways, haha.

240trainee

So did I.

They ripped that shit off.

I dunno, still like how it looks though, hard as nails.

Dude, IIIXziuR. Thanks for posting that pegasus racing link. Lots of cool stuff on there. I am probably getting these:
http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/pro....asp?RecId=777.
They were exactly what I am looking for.
And yeah, I know what you guys are talking about when you say you wouldn't want to leave your car in the open with these. Fortunatley I live in a small PA town with basically zero crime except the occasional convenience store robbery and tons of DUI's (college town, haha). An hour away on the other hand is a town where you can't leave your car anywhere cuz shit gets stolen all the time no matter how nice or shitty your car looks.

SlideWell

they are referred to as "zeus clips." at least here in seattle

smelly240

ur thinking of DZUS BUTTONS/CLIPS -- lol zues - i mean thats how its pronounced - but its spelled dzus.

http://www.kenlowe.com.au/body_hardware.htm

those are different - i have dzus buttons on a heat shield i made for my brakes... so i can get the downpipe off easier.
