  • By popular demand! As with many other products we make, this one is the result of us looking around and not finding quite what we were looking for. If you frequently remove and replace the bumper on your 2015-2021 WRX or WRX STI, you know what a pain it can be, and in particular you'll probably have issues where the interface between the bumper skin and the plastic bumper supports ("sliders") start to get weak and the bumper looks like it’s going to fall off the car.

    There are other products that try to remedy this situation, but most of them have shortcomings. Those rubber-band dealies are cheap and work okay, but the rubber bands crack and wear out, plus the appearance isn't great. There are some other products that use sheet metal brackets with quick-release fasteners, but they are not that strong structurally and their design still can result in some bumper sag.

    Our Mach V Motorsports quick release bumper supports are designed to address all these shortcomings, and to be the best available way to be able to quickly and easily get your bumper on and off, while looking good and tightly retaining your bumper.

    Our heavy-gauge design allows fast installation and removal of your bumper, and is engineered to be super-strong and to have maximum leverage for the best and tightest possible retention of the bumper. 

    The Mach V quick release assemblies are constructed from a big chunk of billet aluminum, so there will be virtually no flex of the support structure. Additional support is provided by supports made of heavy-gauge stainless steel plate. Thick stainless steel hardware holds the assemblies together, and additional stainless steel hardware attaches them to the car. The Mach V logo is engraved into each unit. For convenience, each unit also is labeled left and right.

    Once installed on the car, the only visible part of the whole arrangement are the two push-button quick-release fasteners. 

    Installation is easy and requires only a few tools. We do recommend having two people to help with removal and re-installation of the bumper skin. Having the car in the air on a lift or at least jack stands will also make the job easier. Unlike the competition, we have a complete installation guide.

    Set of two quick-release assemblies, each of which has two quick-release units. All required installation hardware is included. The main bumper support assembly is finished in black, with black-finish quick release buttons.

    In case you ever need spare quick release fasteners or want to change the button colors on your kit, they are also available separately.

    Made in the USA!

    Disclaimer: This modification is intended to allow quick removal and replacement of the bumper, but in that process it replaces some factory attachment points for the bumper skin. In doing so it is almost certainly not going to be able to retain the bumper skin as tightly and as perfectly as the complex and highly-engineered original attachment methods. For that reason we recommend this modification for show or track/offroad use only. If you just need to replace damaged or worn out bumper retainers (sliders), we do sell those HERE.
