RJ Front Bumper


my summer plans had a few set backs
...teaser for now.
not too pretty in the process of a facelift

I just couldn't wait to see how it matches
with the A-spec kit.
and it does...

pretty nicely

The picture is quite a tease. A photoshoot with you, BforBrian, and Blackura would be sick. Where about in Long Island are you?

P.S. - Your car looks AM in the picture!

I would strongly suggest painting the mesh grille anthracite, or powdercoat them anthracite, because for one, they would match the wheels, and 2, they would have a little contrast against the rest of the bumper, and showing the intake shape is what makes this kit so attractive. I've seen the kit with all black mesh on NBP, and it almost looks stock the way everything blends into eachother. I've also seen 07 Standard TL foglights installed, and that looks even more impressive, non-type S fogs.

this thread DEFINITELY helps me out visualizing just a front RJ kit because I have a type-s and wanted to get the RJ front and sides and the a-spec rear (type-s) and it would be totally awesome! are you installing some fogs into the RJ? or just painting it?

no plans on fogs....
yet.
I loved having lower fog lamps on my 03 tls
especially in the evening or dark days
with only the fogs & parking lights on.
they light up the ground really well.

the type s rear lip is nice.
