Wow, i jsut read through all the pages...This thread went out of control for a few! hahaha. GREAT idea, i love the black chop. Some other good chops as well. I like the different aspect that people went for. I would definately be in for a GB. Would you be able to paint, or would i tbe better to paint when it got here? Reason i ask is, i dont think people can match like you do.

this looks VERY similar to the OEM bumper ._. kinda too similar IMO = \

I'm working on making a few glass copies of the OEM bumper (it'll help us in the future anyways )

eric, sounds like you need to do a mr. potato head bumper kit where the customer can plug in and arrange as many vents, lips, and lines as they want in any configuration they can imagine.




its hard to please everyone!

pics? I have 4 OEM bumpers copied in fiberglass with perfect fitment that I'll be using to create future parts =)

As for modding the 06 to look like that chop its not too hard but I want to make it look unique in a way.. I dont want someone to be confused with having an OEM bumper.. I want it to remain unclear weather its OEM or now with an agressive stance

I say just keep it the same but have it go a little lower, and enlarge the vents a bit.

When will this be done? I am looking for a new front bumper, and want something classy like Nismo (I don't have an intercooler so unfortunately I can't put on my fav TS bumper) but with a bit more edge. As it stands I don't feel right dropping a grand to put on a bumper that even some G35 owners can't tell from stock.
