Spicing Up the 2gA, Opinions Welcome.

[SD_TSI]

For us 2gA owners who want to retain our factory bumpers. Here's what the eBay front lip looks like. I think it looks bomb. As the title states, opinions are welcome.

Enjoi.

Take off your stickers, sell your hood to some ricer kids, and move to a state like PA that doesn't have front license plates.

 

[tallywacker]

And get rid of your yankee candle air freshener. Less is more.

Yeah man just pack your things and move to another state just so you don't have to put a front plate on..

Can someone explain the logic in some bullshit post like that?

Front plates are about the dumbest ####ing thing ever. I am glad I don't live in a state that requires them and I hate all the states that do. ####ing ruins the look of most cars that were not designed with front plates in mind.

Nice hood but I hate the ground effects on the front end. Looks a retard, stoned smiling shark now with a fat lip.

 

[jacobevan611]

I like both the hood and the lip.

I like both the hood and the lip.

Me to, and as for moving to pa, that will work if you want your lip ripped off and some bent rims.

I got a set of tokico coilovers and I dont know if I even want to do the 1.75 drop because of our roads.

 

[CleanEclipse]

the lips is nice but im not sure about the hood

...put the plate in the windshield, problem solved. ive had it that way since i got it and have never gotten any shit for it

 

[TofastForU_99]

I actually like it all you have a nice car It looks good keep it up. Way better then the stock 2ga ugly front bumpers

 

[kqodprez]

That lip looks great on your 2g...post a link if you can to where you ordered from. Did you paint or did it come that way?

 

[colbyc]

i personally like it all, looks clean to me, and yeah a link would be nice too sir

Move to alabama. Decent roads, no emissions. no inspection, hell you can drive your lawnmover if you put turnsignals and brake lights on it.

Wow, mixed reviews. Well let me try and briefly reply to your guys' comments!

tallywacker - You just made youself out to sound like a complete asshole, but no offense. I like the stickers and so does everyone I meet. All the stickers are meant to be jokes, and most people enjoy seeing and reading them. Realistically, its complete ludacris to move to another state just to take my front plate off. Oh and that yankee doodle air freshener, is my college parking permit.

tanro - I appreciate your input, and your gracious disagreement with the lip. Hey, we can't all enjoy the same things but its nice to step outside the box.

cleaneclipse - I wish I could keep my plate in my windshield, but I've already been pulled over for having it in my windshield once, but the way I have it mounted now I can pull the plate off and you can't see any holes in the bumper.

Thanks to everyone else with good feedback!

haha I like the idea about moving to Alabama and as for the car, I like the dark green and lip and carbon combo, but not so much the stickers until you explained why you have them. sucks you cant put the plate on the windshield. Def. a good looking 2gA!!

 

[Tanro]

It's not that I don't like the ground affect. I like lip kits. Wings West makes one that is sexy as hell for 2nd and 3rd Saturn Coupes. (The only wings west product I have ever seen and liked)

But I just don't like the 2ga front and will changing mine myself once I get done with my 6 bolt rebuild and swap. I will either being going with a stock 2gb piece or a close to stock 2gb body kit front bumper with holes for the 2gb fogs.

 

[mnr88talon]

Your car looks great man. Ive never heard someone get flamed for that hood before and the lip looks clean IMO.

got any more pics from like the sides maybe? I think it looks pretty sick from the front but id like to see how it flows with the side skirts.

 

[LandoAWD]

I'd like to see it painted...it just looks too out of place currently.

 

[shadoof77]

Well stickers not so much, unless there's meaning to it. Like I can understand why people put what they have done to their car and would like to announce it to the world by putting stickers all over their car and i personally am a fan of that. So for me if I put a sticker on my car it will be of what I have done to my car. Unless I get a sponser ! I like the hood, only because I like how its symetrical. The lip, I probably wouldn't put it on my gsx. It's just too plain IMO. It doesn't look agressive to me either. But it's your DSM good lucks with it!

Its called a joke, thanks for understanding I'm glad you agree with the rest of my post.

I am an asshole, so I'm glad that came across. Obviously I was joking because I don't actually expect you to move. I do expect you to take that homosexual 69 sticker off the front though. You only see those on Jeep Wranglers driven by bull-dikes.


Lighten up bud, just expect peoples opinions when you ask for them.

 

[clean96GST]

Cleanest 2ga I've seen... keep it up. How about back/side angles?

 

[dsmspickdad]

I like the lib but it needs to be painted cause you can see the green behind it making it look tacky. I love the look of the 2ga's front end. But I'm also in to the more sleeper look....

 

[SD_TSI]

Thanks for comments, everyone. I will get some pictures from the side once the weather starts to cooperate again. I don't take anything personal, but I just wouldn't expect someone to be so blatantly ig'nant either haha. So sorry tallywhacker if you got the same vibe from me, its all in good fun I know. The 69 sticker is for my car club, its the number I chose so that's not coming off unfortunately. I personally like a sleeper look as well, but the 2gA smiley just wasn't cutting it on its own and this was the only lip I could really find for a reasonable price.

BTW, the lip is painted gloss black now. I'm doing a two-tone soon, and I figured I'd get a head start with my paint scheme.

 

[fastbike02]

I love the look from the front, My problem would be the side view dose it now look like you have the front bumper of a body kit and nothing else? If it doesn't I may get me one of those lips and pas on doing the 2gb swap
