evo5 bumper

[turbo98eclipse]

do u guys like the evo 5 bumper? its almottt like the sensi bumper, but its diff...

 

[Masakari]

yeah, i like it...kinda looks like a prelude....unfortunately i dont think you would keep it looking good for to long one good speedbump and it would be pieces

what kind of hood is that, and do they make it in fiberglass/metal?

 

[turbo98eclipse]

ahahah NOO its a carbonfiber hood...no fiberglass..i mean i guess u coulddd make 1 if u wanted 2 or wateva...but as far as i kno i neva seen 1 dat looks like that in metal/f-g....its a vis http://www.visracing.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=24_259_282&products_id=192

That isn't the kit sitting low it is the car, check out the top pic, the car must be bagged or hydro's.

What makes it ugly is the fact that the shape of it is too far from the 2G styling. Think like this:

1. Old Old School: cars like 240Z's and datsun 510's (classics)

2. Old Schoold: cars like 1G's and 240sx's

3. (Insert genre name here): cars like the 2G, later supras, later RX7's etc. (these have very round and aerodynamic bodies) characterized by rounded headlights, tails, hoods, windows, etc.

4. New School: cars like the 3G, Sentra, RSX (pretty much anything new) that all have aerodynamic-ish shapes, but with sharp edged features like headlights and tail lights, windows, etc. etc.

That front would look good on a category 4 car... not a category 3 car since the bumper has very sharp lines and the indentions on the front are not carried through anywhere else.

Good call!

But in all honesty, I really don't think it goes with the lines of the car.

Why do they make such ugly kits that won't flow with our cars? Like pretty much any kit looks good on RX7's, Supra's, WRX's, and some Evo8's. But ZERO look good on any 2g's.

That's because Mitsubishi got it right the first time.

I have a sensei kit on my car. Well did untill I got caught on someones drive way and ripped half way through. I loved they way it looked. That kit however has a weird body line on the side. Whereas the sensei kit was blocked out on the edges...that kit has that blitz type line running diagnoly. In other words...nah buddy that junk is terrible. Also I scraped like a mad man at stock height (AWD) and I can't imagine driving with that one...it wouldn't last a week, and I'm sure its fiberglass.

Good pic Darksyne, now that's a good comparison. Color even matched too.

 

[HighPsi92GST]

Second time... it took until 97. :laugh:

 

[FutureGSXOwner]

Ok Mr. ANALytical......nah dat's the troof doe.

 

[GSleeper]

i think it looks like ass.

... 1. Old Old School: cars like 240Z's and datsun 510's (classics)

240's and 510's own my soul...

...and for the record, that front bumper sucks.

 

[Slammed0]

I like it.

In fact, I ordered it.

Hey, if we all liked the same thing then what would customization be for?

 

[endlessMyk]

I dunno... I'm a pretty simplistic person, I just think it has too much going on. So, NO don't like it.

 

[bOOstd GSX]

im a fan of the 98 front bumper, and an rmdsm front lip with the "chin" cut off
