ok, posting this here due to the fact alot of you guys have seen my car and have a good idea of what may look good. i found out the little varmit i hit did flex the nose and put a couple hairline cracks in the paint. it will only get worse as time goes on. so i have been searching for a new bumper altogether.
can't make up my mind, but found a few i am interested in. i have alot of fiberglass experience, so minor fitment issues or reworking of some of the bumper is pretty easy to deal with.
pretty obvious i like to stand out, and the first and second ones are over the top, but i am kinda digging the first one. i like the stretched out look. maybe covering over the side openings would give it a wicked stretched V2 look.

 

Im a big Amuse fan.

 

looking pretty much in the $400-500 shipped range. don't care about replicas. anymore than that and i would just make my own, lol.

 

Just my opinion, but I don't think your car is "aggressive" enough to support the first or second ones. You would have to replace your side skirts and rear in order to make it flow all together. I would go with the third option.

 

i say 3

 

This one is nice

 

Amuse

 

ya, my car is largely based on alot of rounds, not sharp edges. it crossed my mind also. the first one though i am seeing alot of potential if the side openings were smoothed over. the front opening is round, sides would be rounded, then just the corners would be straight edged, and would flow good with the headlights.
i can get it shipped for about $450, same as the amuse.
the second one would need more work to have it look good.

i looked at the pic again. my car is abit lower than the one in the pic. that front may be sitting on the ground on my car!

 

I think with your skill set you could make any of them look good with slight to major modification :P

Do it!

 

get an amuse and have fun looking like everyone else and their grandma. thats why i got rid of mine.

 

open to other ideas too. i think that one may be to dam low on mine. it would require shortening the whole thing.

 

this one looks pretty good.

here is a site with nearly all the bumpers available for the Z

i went with the do luck bumper but i dont know if that will be aggressive enough for you....

 

hey Rick whats up! lol

 

shhh...... please do not expose my shill account!

 

$1 is too transformers-like. #2 is just plain ugly. Amuse, on the otherhand, is badass. See if you can find pics of ones with the front CF diffuser. Looks amazing.

 

this!

 

INGS +1 authentic front for sure

 

i was looking at the ings long nose. just can't find any other pics of it other than one that they use to sell it. would like to see more pics. also worried about how low my car is and how far a long nose sticks out.

well, i only worked 4 hours today and have been planted here for like 24 hours trying to get prices/pics/new products/ and opinions and my brain is fried!! i am between 7 bumpers is as far as i have narrowed it.
c-west front- aero wise and air inlet wise about the best, just don't really like it
amuse- aero and air inlet very functional, like the looks, but everyone has it
vertex- 50-50 on the side view, frontal area is very large and less aerodynamic, air inlets good, overall looks good
ings long nose- concerns listed above
esprit- for the most part like it, but the little part i don't like holds me back. i hate how it curls around the front tire instead of coming straight down.
type n visage- pretty bad ***, rare, but spendy as hell for fiberglass

the rest, well, just not gunna spend that much for fiberglass that WILL get mashed again

 

which one? there are multiple ones. Plus I already run the N spec with shaved sides, and I doubt he wants to be like me. Buddy club 2 I think is my choice for you.
