Front Bumpers Ideas
As You all know, my front custom bumper was damaged, I am planning to fix it up as it was but using a different lower lip. Any ideas? or even an entirely different bumper... looking forward for your suggestions and pictures.
My current custom bumper is the one taken from the Impreza Bugeye... maybe some pics of similar remodded ones can be very much appreciated. Thanks to all who contribute to this thread

Coooooooooooool I like it... very classy and nice.
You got skills JJ to be able to make that photoshop But frankly speaking I was thinking more of a two pieces front than a one piece. The design you suggested J is a one piece unit. This time I am going to do it right.

The clips are to hold the fiberglass hood. I removed the original locker in the middle and replaced it with the clips...

Stock
You could go back to a stock front bumper and rear spoiler and improve the appearance of your car immensely.

I would say...
Toy with an '05 STi bumper....don't get too elaborate with it...the photoshop is keenly good...however the design is a bit too big...the openings become too extreme for the rest of the body...I like your idea of two pieces Danny

I am thinking of doing something easier and less time consuming. I will just go from my stock part and do something resembling the K-Staff for the time being... I will keep restoring my first custom bumper as I find time...
