C-One front bumper, Might be time to play Options

[Sinyk]

Spring is coming and I'm feeling the itch. Last year I did a few small upgrades to my '96 and I'm starting to crave some bigger upgrades.

After looking at many pictures and reading many threads, I think I have determined what I may do next, and it's some body work.

So far my list consists of:

C-one front bumper
TRD Rear Splitters
GT-4 hood or VIS Zyclone hood
Maybe 404 Sideskirts, might stick with stock ones

I was getting ideas from cars like celiracer's and Tufy's for inspiration because damn those are some hot lookin' cars!

I've been visiting websites for the last few days trying to gauge the price of all of this. I have heard people say bulletproofautomotive.com is a good place, and some say japanparts.com.

Bulletproof wants $748 for the C-One front and from what I see, japanparts wants $742. The japanparts website, after selecting my shipping options, looks like they charge an extra $625.48 on top of the price, unless I am misinterpreting this, while the bulletproof one says their price includes the shipping to their US office, then you have to pay shipping on top of that to get it to your door.

Is this right? over $1350 for a bumper, shipped? Seems very high.

Also, I noticed there are ST202 and 205 versions of the bumper. I know that the ST205 hood is higher at the front, but if I were to do the ST205 bumper and an ST205 hood, would they fit? I'm assuming I would either need the ST205 crash bar or grind down the existing one on my car, but I don't know.

Any information anyone?

This year, we've had a lot of snow (i <3 snow ), but rain is really sporadic.

Sounds like the ST202 bumper would be the easy way out. So I guess I have to decide, if I do the hood as well, if I want a GT4 or a Zyclone hood.


Anyone looking to sell some TRD rear splitters? I see the same ones on ebay out of the UK listed as "TRD Spats" but how's the quality/fit?. Is the person who makes those on this site? Anyone buy those ones before?
