Recently damaged my front kit due to bad bad roads :bash:

Anyway I was after a bumper that would allow me to use a bigger intercooler theres a tiny gap in my current one. Anyone reccomend a nice front that would suit the rear and skirts already on the car? Prefer nothing to gaudy.

Thanks

well i dunno what your definition of "too gaudy" is, but i always thought this bumper was pretty clean and simple.

(the middle one)

Judging by the look of your sideskirts and the ones in the pic, it looks like it would match up ok.

if you want a bumper to allow more air to your IC get the msports. few other bumpers offer such a huge gaping hole for air to feed your IC and radiator. Hit up NI YON ZENKI he has a bomex front that mite work well with your sides and rear. bigger opening for IC/radiator and brake ducts(if you got them)

Haha, Gracer was exactly what I thought when I saw the pic. The Bomex bumper isn't too bad either, it's shockingly clean looking, especially bo Bomex standards.

Is this an April Fool's joke? That car looks sweet. I don't see any damage. If there is, it shouldn't be hard to repair. Maybe just relocate the front tag to get more air to your FMIC. But yea, my M-sports kit practically exposes my entire FMIC. Not sure if it would go with those sides though. Gracer (shown below) looks like it would.

Got any pics of your car? I like the look of my front lip from almost every angle but the front and there is very little air flow there for a intercooler yeah the pic is pre damage but your right it would be easily fixed.

I Dislike the gracer zenki aero .

I'd go with some version select stuff, of course that might be a little big, but plent of IC room

vertex bumper from speed alliance would look sharp + adding a carbon undertray to protect it from scrapes would be wise also.

Origin. Better quality and fitment than Version Select. I am getting one. I had vertex, destroyed that, went for greddy lip, destroyed that also, now let's try Origin hehe. Let's see how long that one lasts.

dude if you destroyed the greddy lip that is URETHANE, you're definitely gonna destroy the origin front bumper!

Thanks for your guys input what does the Version select front look like? Beginning to think about modifying my bumper cutting down the center of the bottom lip for more clearance...
