bumper and hood

so ive been thinking about getting a different front bumper to provide more flow over the intercooler and hood, just thought i would ask what you people thought of this.

although this is for a 1ga with the flip ups

also wondering if anyone knew of a decent place to get either of these from.

The hood might not be so bad, but always remember... "Say no to bodykits".

You don't need it. People have been running high powered 1G's for a long time and cooling solutions get worked out Don't do it.

If you like it, do it. I don't like it, but I can see what you're saying. I would modify the stock parts if I were you.

Re: bumper and hood

On a DSM, modify = cut the shit out of it.

95% of the people on here despise body kits. I don't think that one looks bad. The big issue is that you will spend a decent amount of money for the kit, slap it on and it doesn't fit right. You will mess with it to get it where you like it, paint it and be happy. Take the car out of the garage the next day, bottom out, crack the shit out of it.

I wouldn't do it for function, I would do it if you like it.
