zele front bumper gives better air flow for FI?

sojirovskensi · 12-02-2011, 01:42 AM

After seeing some people from the South region having trouble getting cold air to keep the temperature low during summer, I was wondering if zele front body will help reduce this issue.
I know many go for amuse for its aesthetic, but if zele gives a better outcome for the FI, I may consider getting just the front.
What do you guys think?

Oh wow. That's great! That's the first aftermarket bumper I have seen that I really like and that would help with getting cooling to brakes / supplemental coolers. Is there an American distributor?

Yes, it does look as if it will help some. That combined with a vented hood would make a great combo.

^ This

Packing more air in the front will help, but you really want to exhaust hot air from the engine compartment as well. That's where the vented hood will come in.

FWIW, I think UAM (forum sponsor) makes a replica of the Zele front just in case you don't want to spend thousands on it.

If only G's had a decent fitting hood that does not require washers/removing hood latch

In for confirmation of UAM making something like this, and any comments on fitment.

We're Zele's biggest distributor outside of Japan....

bullitt5897 · 12-02-2011, 01:28 PM

UAM is NOT and I repeat NOT making a replica of Zele. We are however working on our own kit

does it have similarities to the Zele... Yes, it does the Zele kit opening placements offer a great deal of airflow! And ours will follow in step with the same philosophy for cooling. We can get you the Zele front bumper or any other part as well.

I knew you guys were doing something similar. Just couldn't remember if it was an exact replica or not.

sojirovskensi · 12-02-2011, 01:31 PM

besides the kit price, how much more should I expect for the paint+labor?
also, would it be alright for the look if I just install front bumper with oem side/rear?
I mean,, I will care about the performance first, but i wouldn't want to make it look awkward.
