Help. Want a more aggressive front end.
Opinions on a lip or new bumper? I think the front end is lacking. It's stock. Not much going on. I think a Nismo bumper would look cool, but it would be hard to come by I think. Maybe a lip? Would like to keep the price down.
Here's some pics:

you could blackout the fang section....i feel that makes it look much more aggressive. and thats very simple and cheap. heck you can try it out with plasti-dip,see how you feel and decide from there?
i know my car buddies said it looks much more "angry" with the fangs blacked out |

You can find an oem nismo front bumper, like the simplistic look compared to an amuse kit, and think nismo flows way better. I think the best bumper is fujimura. Not too big of a fan any lips though.

Sunline with blacked out fangs is the most aggressive I think. Nismo flows nice but not as aggressive, fujimura is nice but expensive, s tune is nice only on certain colors and car has to be low, seibon GT lip looks aggressively good but car needs to be low as well.
Bottom line first step to make it look mean and aggressive is to black out the fangs and make a wide mouthed Z. Just my opinion.

if you run darker wheels it's better you have a lip, but if you're keeping your s-tunes in that color, just leave it. if i did not have my gunmetal WEDS wheels (and just ran my nismo wheels), i would've just ran without the ings.

I'm still a big fan of the Stillen front splitter. When you paint match it to the rest of the car it gives the car a more aggressive look and also maintain a stock look |
