GP sports front bumper and factory skirts = looks aiight

GP sports front bumper you will need to cut the reinforcement bar just alittle

 

[sushiming]

You'll find this is the case with quite a lot of aftermarket kits, I'm afraid.

Will the bumper not be alot lower than the stock skirts also??

Not saying that would be bad as i havent seen it

 

[Nicely]

Not necessarily. Look at my sig photo. See how the standard bumper drops down at the wheel arch and is higher at the front. The front can drop quite a way to be in line.

Ah yes :wave:

Nope its just his personal car nothing to do with the business. Its a nice example though 390 bhp . Gp Sports front bumper. Carbon rear diffuser. He's left RC's now and is currently in Japan for a few months. When he gets back I'll pop over and get some pics. :nod:

I am thinking about changing the front bumper to GP sports also <--- well after FMIC upgrade.... I think its probably the best looking aftermarket front bumper that will match the stock sideskirt ~

Not sure about the rear with gp sports kit, because it is actually thicker and longer than the stock kit.

On one of the S15 GP Sports kits you can get just rear pods instead of a full rear bumper, which just attach to the factory rear bumper, and look almost the same as the factory rear pods.
