Default JDM front integras without side markers and center beam in the bumper? what do you think

I KNOW this will be "distroying" the JDM authenticity of the front but I personally think that it looks cleaner without the side markers or the center beam. I would just not connect the side marker, not use one of the bulbs and get the body shop to fill in the hole on the side pannels and also get them to cut the center beam off and finish off the sides. let me know what you think and if you could do without the side markers and if the center beam isn't structural. thanks for the feedback.





and in yellow, holla

I don't care for sidemarkers, and that centre beam is supposed to be painted black anyway so yeah both your "ideas" look nice.

here it is in CW, I think it works out. might not be "JDM legal" to all your JDM junkies but I think it looks nicer and cleaner like this... definitly in white. I'll be painting my Milano Red GSR in Amulet Audi TT red once I get my JDM front on.

The "center beam" looks better removed or painted black... side-markers are over-rated

I've never seen the center beam painted black, does anyone have pics of this? I've seen it always painted the same color as the rest of the car...

without the beam and side markers it is then. I need to see how much the body shop will charge me for these things now. thanks for the good feedback
