I have been debating on whether or not to cut out the grill in my front bumper. The White Z is the best picture I have of the front of my car. Should I cut it out to show off my front mount intercooler or just leave it the way it is? Right now the car is kind of a sleeper. It currently is running the stock exhaust system so people don't realize it is boosted until they hear the blow off valve;
however, I am changing out the exhaust soon. So that may give it away. I appreciate the input.

 

you should cut it only if you get a front lip. It looks too open and bland without a grill even if there is an intercooler.

just my humble opinion

 

+1 Get the veilside v1 lip

 

Both look good, but i suggest buying an aluminum undertray for the added support if you cut it out.

 

If I remember correctly (IIRC)...I heard Alberto took his out and after going really high speeds his bumper almost ripped off and almost crashed. I don't think it looks that bad when it's black. It hides good. If you take it out maybe add some extra support.

 

if i were u, i wud leave it the sleeper look =)

 

Agreed. I cut mine out, and have had some issues with cracking using the stock undertray.

 

Go for a lip and cut then mesh the grill, looks a lot better IMO.

 

Be careful with high speeds and a grill removal.. member "Alberto" had an unfortunate occurrence with his cut out..

 

This is a tough decision. If I cut it out and don't like it I can't go back. I'm going to look into an aluminum undertray before I cut it. I'm going to search and see if I can find the link to Alberto's bumper incident, I haven't heard about that before. So, thanks for the info.

 

Was going to cut mine out as well and hadn't heard of this issue before - not that I searched for it, but good to know.
I guess now I will be looking for an aluminum undertray as well. damn, once the spending starts it just keeps going and going

 

forgot to put my thoughts - I suggest get front lip and cut front grill out - i guess the aluminum undertray would come into play as well.
