Impul bumper pics...

This is a work in progress (still need an emblem and some painted side/rear sills), but here's a photo of the Impul front bumper on my supercharged sedan. I actually can't decide whether or not I like the look--and I won't know until I paint the side sills--but I needed more airflow to the intercooler.

Your feedback is welcome.

Re: Impul bumper pics...

Zimbo what more can i say about your car being sick? I dunno, IMO i would get rid of the cheap looking mesh grille type stuff on the lower area to show that nice front mount =) It looks pretty good and will be brought together nicely witth he painted side skirts. The Nismo sideskirts would look sick on it, it would be about the same length. Good luck with it, and keep us posted! Martin

That looks good, and it will look even better once you do paint the side sills. I wish there were more bumper choices out there in urethane other than the nismo and stillen lip cause I don't want fiberglass.

I think it will look alright once I get the side sills painted. I'm taking them in tomorrow.

Zimbo can you take a head on shot of the mesh sccreen in front of the intercooler? I wasnt putting your bumper down in any way either, I was just making a suggestion, i love it and will look real nice with painted skirts..

Re: Impul bumper pics...

Very nice indeed. Very clean, but definitely need to see those sides and rear painted.

My suggestion would be to get or paint existing mesh grill black. I'm not really diggin the whole silver look in the front, kinda bland in colour.

Do you notice that the stock sides are much higher than the front bumper? If you can get a side view shot, that would be great!


It's still a G thang!!

Re: Impul bumper pics...

Love your bumper and mesh screen. Where did you purchase your bumper? Have you considered getting the Impul side sill and rear add-on lip?? Also, if I were to purchase Impul rear add-on lip, which should be a bit small to fit on US spec rear bumper, is there any way a bodyshop can modify it to fit the US bumper? Does anyone know??

Re: Impul bumper pics...

Looks good, I agree it looks better without the mesh. Is that license plate bracket part of the bumper?

man, looks a lot better. Did you draw lines down the side to make it look like the doors went all the way down? Looks really nice.

Well, the second picture is a PhotoChop. Yes, the front license plate thingy is indeed part of the bumper
