your call Pie, i like both!

but if you use the bigmouth then use decent mesh or it will look toss when things start to hit it

just mesh that not too thin and totally destroyed if a fly hits it

well a mig mouth is based on a gsi bumper so your in a win win situation

have both and swap an change as you get bored

remeber to get the bigmouth fitted properly as they can be a tw4t if not fitted correctly/securely

Mesh can look ok when painted a dark colour. In silver it looks like a rabbit hutch.

I say GSi fr bumpers are more common than Jordan on a night out.

Big mouths only work on super clean cars, anything less and its going to look bad, just my opinion though

I big mouthed mine back in about 2000. I agree with Graeme, they look terrible on unloved cars.
