Default Esprit side skirts and rear apron ... What bumper?

I currently have the full Esprit kit installed on my car, but the front bumper just isn't working out. Bottom line its too low. I haven't had it on for that long, but it rubs on everything. No matter how slow I drive it scrapes or bumps. Normally I would avoid the areas where it does, but some aren't avoidable like my work and my home. I need an idea for a new front bumper, I would prefer urethaine. You all mix and match all the time... what do you think ?

Whats up dude? yeah I had the same problem as well....I was scraping everywhere! So I ended up switching it with the Stillen facia 2 Front bumper and it fits awesome. Here is a link to some pictures I took! Enjoy

stock bumper with veilside v1 lip, nourz has esprit sides with a v1 lip and it looks pretty nice. if you want a full bumper go with the new gruppe-s , kurumaZ nismo style bumper.

You mean this one ?

I was thinking that too. Think it will line up ok with the skirts? I was also thinking about the trial front end, but it looks like it might scrape just as much.

yeah the trial is about as low. the n-style from gruppe should come close. check out dbzcat's car she has the vizage sides and rear with a nismo bumper and those sides and rear are about the same height as the esprit if not lower.
