I can imagine that it will look awful. Just like someone who has only done a half ar5ed job. Either do it right or not at all IMHO.

Actually it looks pretty bad ass. I like it, plus the gap is going to keep you alot cooler.

Yeah that thin gap between the bumper and the ridge on the GT-Four hood is a great way to keep your engine cool, especially if your're running your engine hard on the track or are running boost.

If you're worried about engine cooling, then why not fit the proper GT4 bumper in the first place along with the bonnet (sorry, as a Brit I still can't bring myself to say 'hood'
 )? That way you won't have what looks like a mismatched bonnet/bumper (which in reality it is) and you'll also have the extra aperture in the bumper.Gary -------------------- 1994 ST205 Celica GT-FOUR Group A WRC - running in new engine 1993 Rover 220 GTi tarmac rally car (under construction) 3SGE power here we come....

Not everybody likes the way the gt4 bumper looks. I dont. i think the gt4 hod looks great with the 404 lip kit. |
