Ferris,
What have you got bolted to the underside of the outer sections in front of the tires? Is that something you made? Or some part that Rhino sent?
Thanks,
Robert
It is a part provided by Rhino. It serves two purposes:
- Keep grime, dirt, etc. from getting up inside the bumper where the sensor, headlight washer, and fog light connections are.
- An upward lip at the rear edge keeps the wheel well in place (you cut the existing plastic wheel well liner to the right length).
Thank you! I will be emailing Rhino to see if I can get a couple of these.
The absolute easiest way to request replacement parts (which I had to do for various missing items) is to mark the missing pieces on the inventory checklist (see below, your missing covers are the "LOW COVER" on the right-middle edge) and then chat with Rhino via WhatsApp (use the link on the bottom of their website) - they're very responsive that way. Paula handles the WhatsApp communication and is also in charge of getting the orders set up and out the door.
If you ordered your bumper directly from them, I assume they'll just send you the parts at no cost. Otherwise if you bought the bumper from someone else, then just ask for a quote for the missing pieces. They gave a very fair price (plus shipping) when I talked to them for what I was missing.
It is not totally off topic, this is new bumper. I order it for my car. It has for 2016 model also.
Rival bumper
Looks pretty good, seems to be a US distributor in Texas but not sure if anyone has dealt with this company? Anyone know about RIVAL? I'd be interested if they had something for LX.
hmmm this is a new one to add to the mix. Doesn’t look like it has a hoop option. But that’s not a deal breaker. Hmmmmm
Is the what's app still the best way to contact them regarding orders or does anyone have a current email address to begin correspondence?
Whatsapp is the way to go, you get immediate response and it's super easy back-and-forth communication.
I had/have Rhino 4x4 contact for Europe... I think I got it via instagram
Whats app is best, and you can call them. Paula is a sweetheart. Fyi in Argentina they may be off until after the 10th.
Curious of your experience with this bumper?
Well, I am very happy with look and build. It is not perfect fit like oem bumper but I think non of aftermarket bumper is. I will post photo of it
How did you guys pay for the bumper? I received an email and they stated that payment to be made via bank transfer. Normally i wouldn't do this. wanted to see what you all have done
Yes, bank wire transfer. They give pretty detailed instructions how to do it. Honestly, not sure there would be a better way for them to do it without risking reversed charges and such (basically customers stealing), without a U.S. presence to fight abusive customers.
Well, crypto would be better as far as fees likely, but that is a bridge too far for most companies still.
They are very legit and honest dont worry.
Anyone have the whatsapp contact info handy to keep me from digging for it?
talk to Paula. +54 9 3513 90-8520
