Question Help me decide please....

guys: I'd love to have the Veilside V1 front bumper on my 06 Z. However I have 2 questions and I'd like to hear your opinions.

1. would you buy the Carbon Fiber one or the urethane one? I'm thinking of getting the urethane one because if I'm not mistaken this material is sort of what my stock bumper is made out of, plastic and flexable type and I'm going to color match it to my car paint (black)

2. do you believe my car will look rice if I only install the front bumper and not the side and rear bumper? I might get them later but as of right now, I just like how the front VS V1 bumper looks on the Z.

please tell me your opinions....

I think your car will probably look rice if you do any body mods. 9/10 modders just end up making their cars look bad. The other 10% are really talented and have a vision, instead of just tacking random Chinese plastic crap onto their car.

I agree with the other posts. You should prob have a grander
scheme than just a lip. If you do pull the trigger assume about
$200 for paint and install, maybe more. The cf lip should be cleared
too, unless you want it yellowing or otherwise looking bleh in 12 months.
