Default Exterior Modification !

i am trying to look for a new kit for my 2007 350z because i am tired of my replica bumper. So i just recently purchased a stock front bumper and i am torn between these kits:

1.)JP Type S

2.)INGS LX Sport

3.)VERTEX

4.)WALD

ORIGIN URBAN

5.)Buddy Club

should i just buy the whole kit or mix and match different kits? any recommendation/suggestion/advice

Man, the picture for the Origin Urban looks like crap. The hood is out of whack, and the nothing on the front looks right. I'd steer clear of that one for sure.

The Wald looks too busy. The ING LX, JP, and Vertex are too bland. The Buddy Club doesn't look all that bad, but they also sell snake oil do-nothing grounding kits, so I question their integrity.

I'd just put the stock bumper on and be happy.

I'd save your money and throw it under the hood.

I've always liked the kenstyle kit myself.

Not a huge fan of the lips. Don't like the seam the leave. If you fill the seam and remove it then you've got something. Otherwise I would replace it with complete bumper.
Just my view.
