Default Fresh New Look For The S

I really like how it turned out.

The front bumper started life as a J's racing front bumper.

We removed the canards, tow hook, fill the holes and in the intake. Smoothed everything out and re painted it.







Before

I like the deletion of the hole, but I thought the canards and tow hook went well with the aggressiveness of the bumper. I was never a big fan of the bumper in the first place myself. I think I liked it more before the update...

You got my PM about this thread right?

Yes, and I added some info to the first post. Will that suffice?

If not, feel free to move it.

Thanks

I like the removed intake scoop and tow hook hole but it definitely needs at least one set of canards. It just looks like it's missing something.

Ride height is fine. I race my car, any lower is rubs tires and scraps. Screw that noise.

I like it better now, vent was gay and the canards looked a little too much like cheap stuff held on by sheet metal screws to me. On the other hand, good luck if you ever need a tow.

I've got a tow hook on the back. You can pull a car on to a flat bed in any direction.

you mentioned racing; do you feel a difference in lift without the canards? namely in corners, but high speed too?

I'm interested in this one too....since they were attached to a bumper and not anything of structural integrity. I'm guessing not too much of a difference myself.
