Honest opinions

Been a member for many years now and most of you have helped me along with my build even if you haven't noticed. I have learned a lot, laughed, cried and down right question some members insanity. But every once in a while I need some honest opinions to help me stay clear of wrong decissions.

Anyway, I am nearing completion on my suspension and engine build and have decided to do the APR wide body kit. I need some ideas on a different front bumper. So shoot me some opinions and help me. I am currently thinking about doing an authentic CS front which would be modified by outcast garage.

I think it has cancer. I'm either doing a hikkatadori hood or an invader hood. Havent decided yet but leaning towards the hikkatadori

Good choice. It'll need an aggressive hood.
It'll actually WORK with the car- not like the kid who tossed on a duraflex vented hood on a bone stock car

Def good choice

Those holes just look SOOOO big to me. What are your other options for a front bumper?

Need a big front mount intercooler to pull that bumper off. With just mesh, it would look bad.

"OPEN WIDE!" If I was a killer whale dentist I'd feel like I was at work looking at that bumper!

The intercooler is pretty large. I think I'm good there. Other options are the wide body vielside front or a greedy prob. I want to be different. So kz and all that has been done way too much

The APR wide body looks much better than Veilside Fortune. APR enhances natural lines of the G, the Fortune completely changes the entire look.

These are my only other options. But I am still thinking about going CS.

Why not use the APR front bumper that comes with the kit? Any other bumper will need to be heavily modified to fit the lines of the widebody.
