can't decide what front bumper to go with
 
i can't decide from 4 different bumper choices. I was curious what you guys thought. Hope you guys don't mind if i used a pic of your car.

Option 1.

Option 4.

I'm not sure where the best place to order these kits are. I'd also rather get a replica. So what do you guys think? It'll be going on a redline roadster. It'd be awesome if any of these kits are offered in carbon fiber or have a carbon fiber lip.

Option 1, Option 3, Option 4, Option 2. I voted for Option 1.

QuicksilverZ33 Jul 8, 2008 11:33 AM

1 or 3

azula Jul 8, 2008 11:35 AM

Nismo

virtualbong Jul 8, 2008 12:14 PM

I only like Option 1. The other ones don't flow well with the Z.

1

Swifty Jul 8, 2008 12:37 PM

i noticed alot of you guys chose option 1. why don't you like the other front bumpers? i love them all! it so hard for me to make up my mind.

Thermal1 Jul 8, 2008 12:38 PM

blah, #1 is the only one that looks good. Do you really have bad taste or did you just post the first 4 aftermarket bumpers you found?

edit: #4 is tolerable and #3 looks almost good - like the girl at the bar from last night that you were sure was at least a 9.5 until the next day when you realized she was a 3 until you drank 9.5 shots.

what about an ings +1 nspec? replica kits are out there, looks clean if you shave off the small corner vents, and not a ton of cars rock the bumper unlike the nismo. Option 2 looks way too ricey, 2 and 3 would need some very agressive other body parts to make it flow IMO.

Nexx Jul 8, 2008 12:58 PM

it all depends on the what you are gonna get for the sides and rear. i honestly cant give you an opinion on just the front bumper. they all will look out of place without at least some sort of aftermarket skirt.

Swifty Jul 8, 2008 01:16 PM

right now i have the V1 full kit & was going to switch to the V2 cause i wanted more of an aggressive look. i just ordered a crabon fiber hood & craft square carbon mirrors. i was also going to order the TS carbon rear diffuser as soon as i find out how to fit it with a HKS exhaust. i don't mind taking the sides & back off to find something else to match the front but i was thinking any of these bumpers would match the nismo sides.

get the amuse with the diffuser

Even if we do, the bottom line is its your car (& your money). Don't buy a body kit based on other people's thoughts otherwise you might regret it once you buy it. Decide on what front, side, and rear you would like, go to local shops or meets and see if someone has the kits you like because seeing it in person makes a lot of difference.

I feel what your saying & i agree it is my decision. I wanted to ask cause i know some people are better at telling what'll flow better/look cleaner than myself. I do go to meets, cruise the net, talk to venders, etc. I just can't make up my mind on what bumper tp go with cause i LOVE all these bumpers. I'm curious to hear what some of the fellas think. I'm ljust ooking for a little help.

remove number 2....... its FUGLY

1 is pretty played now... but hey its Hot

3 is custom..... UBER HOT

4 = SUPER HOT

Allen331 Jul 8, 2008 10:23 PM

If you already have the nismo v1 kit, the nismo v2 should flow nicely

Asian Invasian Jul 8, 2008 10:33 PM

yeah, but it has been played out a little & i think any of these kits except the 2nd will work with the Nismo kit. I was leaning torwards option 3 niy since its custom i can count that out. The only thing that worries me about option 4 is the mouth is really big or is it the picture making it look like that?
