My front bumper is hurtin to say the least.. I've got the paint peeling in multiple places,, as well as stress cracks (i think) from runnin up on a curb on accident <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>.. so,...

i was wondering what kind of front ground fx you all think look good for a reasonable price, and where to buy them. &nbsp;I'm not trying to spend mad dough, i just want something that looks a lil diff than stock, but will still go along wieh thte rest of the body well without a full side skirts / rear etc.. thanks!

Get a wide mouth Bomex front bumper. You can get one at www.bomexaero.com and also at www.autoimaging.com. &nbsp;They sell for around $430 plus shipping.

Do you have anything but a radiator and and a/c condensor to fill up that wide mouth? &nbsp;IMHO, I think they look good on cars w/ a nice fat I/C up there, but otherwise they just get filled in w/ chicken wire and look tacky.

Bomex does make a tamer one though and there are gorgeous Nismo knock offs on ebay all the time. &nbsp;Not as big an opening, but still agressive and stylish.

how much should i expect to buy one for off ebay? &nbsp;also, i was quoted around 300$ to paint it... does that sound pricey? or about right?

I dont like buying shit off ebay as much (car parts anyway)
Its hard to know if their in real good quality, despite what someone says...I did bid on a 97 Ferrari 360 tho (lol, when the bid jsut started, the guy started it at 10 bucks and i bid 20...lol, the car sold for 125k ) <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

if ur lookin for cheap, go to www.spoilers.com (same as Erebuni). they've got Veilside copy and another one (unsure of copy). also www.visracing.com . all of these require more fitment than real JDM bumpers......u will pay more to have em fit correctly <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':zzz:'>

ps i've got real Veilside "bigmouth", not on car yet, but pics r on my site.........(btw, pre-fitment fit like a glove <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'> )
