I think the GTR front looks better than the 03-04 bumper.








OK so maybe that's a slight exaggeration but I say do it. Looks better than stock.

Check 4DGS, he has done it. Looks okay, and as people say, anything's better than that stock bumper!

Leave it stock. No need to bastardize your car.

I'm just gonna deal with it and work some money towards a nismo, replica or not. That way, down the road, I can put the stock bumper back on and sell the nismo and the car without explaining why it's cut. Don't get me wrong, I hate the double chin, too, but I would be patient and get some nismo.

I'm LOL.

If anyone saw this on a civic the poor civic guy would be getting a$$ raped for rice.

Here, it's a mod.

Dude - you're thinking of taking a hack saw to the front of your G and you're asking for opinions?

Don't do it. Looks like a$$. Want a different bumper? Save $$ and buy one that you like. Don't junkyard your G because you're cheap.

The cost of a body shop customizing your OEM bumper is not worth it IMO when you could just get a Nismo replica.

oh,, no, i am not taking that part out. i am just paint it over. my buddy told me there is a material which works similar to spray paint. the good thing about this material is you can peel it off if you don't like it.

also it comes with black, white and clear. you can use the clear one as a headlights or bumper protector. i think it's pretty cool
