Body kit question.
I am planning to buy the R33 skyline front:



My question is would it look stupid just the bumper alone? With no side skirts no rear bumper.

How about The R33 front with Kaminari side skirts:



Would this set-up look got without a rear bumper?

Thanks for any insight! [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG]

IMO it would look retarded with just the front bumper, but a front bumper with side skirts and no rear would look just fine.

i think you should wait till you can get a while kit, it looks good with the front and sides then when you see it from the side it looks funny, wait till you find a good setup (full setup)

where have you been?

1, it comes in urethane and fiberglass so its just as much as any other front bumper. R33 is the style taken fron the skyline r33.

An R33 is a type of Skyline GT-R made by Nissan. It's the middle class of Skylines and it's very nice!!! They are made in Japan and can be brought to the US for a very big chunk of change. I would give my left nut for one.

I say get the whole kit, or go with the R33 front and the Kaminari sides and rear. Thats the setup I plan on doing this summer. I have been wanting the R33 front since I first saw it.

What is it about peeps with red civics and the R33 front? I love the look
