I was wondering because I recently got in a crash and my insurance will of course pay for the front bumper that I messed up. I was looking at TRD sparks and I was wondering...after all of that stuff is tallied up it is almost as much as the Kaminari bumper and it comes with all the hardware too.

So my question of course is...how much of a difference do you think it is if I where to pay the difference for the auto shop to get me the kaminari then the stock bumper.

 

It's always cheaper to buy a aftermarket bumper and replace it. If you get the Kaminari. Might as well get the whole kit.

 

I want the front ...but do not like the sides or back...
I want the lip kit that you can get from trd sparks eventually for the sides and back

Wow that is a good thing to know...maybe I can get the shop I am going to to get me the kit front bumper...What you think chris you are pretty smart guy from what I have picked up on.

What is better Urethane or Fiberglass anyways? I was going to maybe print it out for them cause I am taking it in tomorrow.

 

prepare to wait a month to get the bumper. It took me a month to get my spoiler

 

DO NOT do the front of a kit without the rest of it... think about how redukuoulus it will look.... it will sit lower than all the rest of your car....

 

Im fine with that cause I will eventually get the rest after time.

 

Ty_Max,

You will be spending about the same amount of $$ especially if you take advantage of the Kaminari group buy.

Up to you though. If you did get the whole kit and only wanted the front you could always sell off your sideskirts and rear if you really wanted too.

Something to think about.

 

but I cant get it now though...I am turning my car in tomorrow
The point of it is so that the insurance pays for it haha...
I know its such a good deal

 

here is an idea of what the kaminari front would look like with the stock sides/rear.

also you can get the front for $535 shipped from showstoppersusa.com, in urethane

 

oh and if u get the lip kit sides-with the kaminari front

 

^^^I think that RS1 looks good with a just a front on...

 

i do too, but the sides bother me seeing that that the front is much lower

 

well....
it does look really really bad if u only get front
i thought about this and did a little research
i decided to just get stock front bumper again
i dont know how much ground effect kit will make difference but i am telling ya it looks BADDDD!!

 

i feel bad using this picture though...

 

man if that car had the rest of the kit, it would be soo hot

 

stock with oem ground effects > kit

you'll eventually get tired of the kit.

 

Hmmm why cause I will be constantly going over bumps all slow?

 

i dont know, maybe he means just the over all look of it over time?

 

What you think jon?
I personally think I could bare it for a couple months until I get the sides and back lip kit.
I think in white you don't even notice it as much as that gray one.

 

Itll be like that ...and I love that
