4th, Novadose rear isn't it? Looks the best out of them all.

If you HAVE to 4th, but if you want something different take a look at Julian Wilkes rally car rear bumper. He's cut a piece out of the bottom of a standard bumper, would look great with exhaust tucket up into it. I'll try get pic.

What front bumper are you going for?

Gibbo
03-07-09, 08:46 PM
gsi with splitter
laguna splitter or astra

then they would all be out of place in my opinion, are you planning on smoothing the boot? I have alwasys thought a standard bumber with recess can look smart.

Std rear with some form of splitter

Std rear with some form of splitter

Looking at the 5th, i think it is.....

It looks like some form of splitter with fibreglass matting etc in between. Look at the shape of the top of the bumper where it meets body, its too much a close fit to be a kit bumper.

I don't mean a splitter like that, just something a little more subtle to bring the bumper down a bit. Almost like a front splitter but on the back

How did I miss this? :D The Novadose one if you must, but I bet most on here would rather give oral sex to an orangutan with dubious personal hygeine than adorne their [fast car]chariots[/fast car] with those FG creations.

04-07-09, 02:14 AM
out of them the 4th one. but really id have to say gte/gsi

twistysnovagte
04-07-09, 10:36 AM
NONE! if its a mk1 then gte rear bumper,if its mk2 then gsi rear bumper,the bumpers in the pics make the car look shat imo!
but everyones to there own taste(which dramaticly drop's the number of buyer's when you come to sell fact.)
im sure you can guess which option ive choose.

sparkie1401
04-07-09, 11:32 AM
i voted 4 but they are all a bit OTT and ugly

GSI all the way, common but best looking

NovaBoi92
04-07-09, 11:37 AM
is it just MY opinion, or is number 5 the worst bumper that ive ever seen, and doesnt suit the car at all?

marc novataken
04-07-09, 11:42 AM
depends on what front bumper and skirts ya have. you got any pics of the car? be easier to decide then lol.

04-07-09, 11:57 AM
4th one with an exhaust coming out the middle maybe but something suttle :D

AlexW
04-07-09, 11:58 AM
A GSI bumper only has the cut out exhaust bit, nowt else.

I get what you mean by it looking high, thought about cutting another bumper and moulding it onto the bottom?

BIGS
04-07-09, 12:31 PM
gsi one. they all look gash

Novasport
04-07-09, 01:29 PM
Option 8: None of the above, they all look like melted plastic. OE FTW IMO :D

nova alex
04-07-09, 01:36 PM

NovaBoi92
05-07-09, 01:06 AM
if your going to go with one, number 4, because it looks most standardish

(is that even a word? ...you know what i mean lol)

gunny
05-07-09, 01:26 AM
4th, novadose bumper, if you HAVE to put an aftermarket bumper on then novadose FTW, the rest are too Max Power y0!


If you get really creative you could make a nice subtly, different bumper out of an original one and maybe the bottom half of another OE vaux bumper, nothign ott just so it drops the bottom a little more and doesn't look like someone has glued a train wreck to the back of your car

05-07-09, 11:58 AM
Body kits and novas? two wrongs dont = a right!!

What ever, but just don't

vaughanmc
05-07-09, 12:01 PM
Definately Burgo! He'd turn an original piece into something nice

Not into the fibreglass crap myself really...

Gibbo

Jim Mcrae
08-07-09, 05:28 PM
I know whjat you mean when you say the bumper can look small side on, put remember they are small cars and when you see onw in the flesh you look down on it so wouldnt notice as much. Standard is what you want.

Gibbo
08-07-09, 05:33 PM
ye i think im just going to keep it standed with a resess
