Default What do you guys think about the EK4 SiR bumpers with moldings?

What's up people,
I was wondering what everyone thought about those SiR bumpers with the moldings on them (I need new bumpers anyway cuz my bumpers are tore up!). I have a EK4 sedan and since I already have Si wheels and a SiR lip I could just get those bumpers (and some sidemarkers maybe!) for that JDM look. Also if I did all that would I have a right to put a SiR badge on my car? haha just kidding. Anyways thanks for your opinion! I didn't buy any of the bumpers yet so don't feel bad to bash them.
Here's a pic of the SiR without the sir lip.

I was supposed to get some volks, but damn I could get both the front and back bumpers (500), have them painted (400) and some sidemarkers for less than just the rims and no tires haha.

It's not that it's soooooo JDM (even though it is). It more of a case that it's a different look. Simple as that.

Go for it if you can get ahold of them

straight up NO.

adding more black moldings to a car will just make it look that much more "cheap"

I've never been a fan of those bumpers. I would say no. But then again I don't know it may look better in person. Go for it if you want to. It's ultimatley up to you.

You'd sacrifice a set of Volks for 2 fugly "mad JDM y0" bumpers?

Get to Pep Boys, buy that adhesive striping they sell that do exactly the same thing these things do...

What's up,
Damn you people are cruel haha, but it's all good. Hopefully since no one likes them I can get them for a lot cheaper for my project EK later in life haha. I'm just gonna shave everything (emblems, moldings). Thanks for your opinions guys.

so you want to buy the ugly molding bumpers and just shave them? whats the point of wasting money on the pointless JDM part if you're gonna get rid of the "JDM Difference" ?

sorry for the miswording. I'll shave the moldings of the car I have now (EK4 sedan) and later when I get a project car (EK coupe) I'll buy the SiR bumpers for that car (hopefully at a cheaper price).
