ive just bought a kingdom front bumper, ive smoothed my original back bumper and fiberglassed a rear valance to it , got some aggressive skirts and a quite big spoiler.

My question is why do you all hate the kingdom kit. :?:

(cant do picys yet as it isnt all together yet)

i think it adds loads to a lets face, aged car its nice and fresh and aggressive and follows the lines of a nova perfectly. Cant wait till mine is finished

It's not the style of it that bothers me (Althought not my cup of tea), after all if it's going on your car and you like it that's fine.
What does bother me about it is that it's poorly made, the little ridge at the bottom centre of the bumper isn't straight and it sticks out like a sore thumb everytime I see one!!

Other than that and the fact that they generally don't fit too well they are OK..........

i can understand that point and the fittin part, but to be able to find a kit from an aftermarkert company that fits first time is hard. And its all about time and effort.

(mygirlfriends ka!!! kit is a 50 hour job? and its just bumpers?)

Its all Crazzzy

I have a kingdom front bumper myself and i really like it, its just a shame that it also doubles as a small table :(

Thats why most people hate it as it does'nt fit that well.

I like it! :D As long as it doesn't put on a Nova with 15's..... Or even some 16's for that matter. It has to be 17's for it to work for me. (Yeah Baby :lol: )

And as long as the rest of the car suits it, there's no point sticking that lairy great bumper on and having GTE sideskirts and a SR rear bumper!

Match it with something equally large like the fusion rear and it will look the part

The only reason I'm not fond of it anymore is because the bumper is to common these days.

You find that design of bumper of so many different type of cars.

When put with the right kit it does look wicked, but just to common for my liking if that makes sense

i want my car to stay original as well but just bcus i have a familiar bumper means i will have to do something special.

Where i live people dont know what a modded car is!!

I realy like the kit, when fitted right it looks the bollox as it does on my mates, but as a few have said its getting far too common, imo u want to try and be a little bit different so ur car stands out for the crowd
