whats your fav front bumper

Well I have been hit not once, not twice but three times by people backing into my front bumper and screwing up my grill and clear bra as well. were they nice enough to leave a note.......not..

Anyways I want to invest in a new front bumper, lip and grill. I have an 03 in silver and wanted to get comments on peoples favorite look.

Thanks for your help

If your looking to replace the whole bumper. Here are 4 popular bumpers, Impul, Ken Style, Top Secret and Greddy. The KenStyle comes with integrated grill and fog lights. Impul may also come with lights. Top Secret and Greddy looks better with intercoolers.

Also if you only want to get another factory bumper, just add a front lip. If you dont like the factory lip, here are the Data System, Ings, Veilside, and Stillen. Sorry the pictures are not that great. For aftermarket bumpers or lips, call Bulletproof and IntenseMotorsports.

such a hard ?uestion to answer imo. i really like the clean look, with the exceptions from vip type stylists. e.g. Impul, Kenstyle (minus the rear). i'm totally not into the futuristic, wild and crazy look. i hate to say it but, to each their own.........

well, my all time favorite front bumper is the Kenstyle (followed by the Impul), but there's no way in hell I'm paying over $1k for a bumper... I also have loved the Nismo (replica) since I first saw it on joenismo's car... that's the reason I just got off the phone with 350zforums.org 30 minutes ago to order mine! I also have a UT GTR Grille on the way to accompany it... should look sweet...

can you take the license plate holder off of the impul so it would just be a normal opening?????? or how thick is it, a body shop could prolly cut and sand it off right??

wow, thanks for that picture... I think it'll look good once everything is completed - more than anything else, I need my new wheels already!

The only thing I'm not for sure on is if I should just keep the splash guards or if I should go ahead and get some sideskirts (I love the burnout ones) - for now, the splash guards will have to do though... My setup will be:

Nismo Replica front
Unlimited Tuning GTR Grille
(Maybe) SilviaParts Eyelines
Stock Splashguards
SpoilerDepot Lip Spoiler
19" SF-winnings dropped on Hotchkis Springs

We should have completed pictures in about two weeks... I guess we'll see how the finished product turns out!

Overall I like IMPUL front the most, KenStyle is excellent but the 'hawk eye' fog lights looks funky. (love the splitter though) The Top Secret lower portion looks kind of blocky, and the Greddy is just boxy overall. ZeroSun? Oh please~ Nismo I like but it looks too similar to the G35 sedan aero kit..... will be hard to differentiate from the sedan.

As far as lip spoiler, I still think the factory one looks best.
