Hello Rennlist thats my car over there.
Bumper is an old design of a local FG company...i trusted them to do a good job...
Aparently the FG guy who designed this bumper had a thing for japanese cars.
That picture really does not make any justice to the car or to that bumper.
I dont like the bumper myself and i've already changed it to an S2 unit. (curently being prepped and painted)

I was wondering when Morghen was going to show up to defend himself!

He's a true enthusiast.

thanks for the welcome

the simple truth is that the bumper has some odd angles that spoil the whole car.
form some angles its really good but being made by one guy..it cant be perfect.
like i said...i've changed it.

here is a picture of the intercooler. VERY effective...angle mounted.

Looks like a mix of a 240 and a pointy camaro front end..

Much better now
