The GTR is in the bodyshop for a respray and I NEED to get a front bumper for it asap to get it sprayed along with the car.

The one that I was hoping to get is proving a bit of a ballache...the mould is in one place and the maker in another and getting one to the other is just not happening.

So now I have two options....

Buy an off the shelf Do Luck one, the same as the one currently on the Kleers R32 GTR, as so





Get one made the same as RK Tuning and Mark Biggers' skyboats, like so (I think they look a bit space-ship like and just can't make up my mind about them)






Both will work out the same price....I'm just bloody awful at deciding!

in terms of drag not the carbon add ons

If you're buying purely based on aesthetics I'd go for the first one, looks much better in my opinion.

It's a race car, does form mean more to you than function?

Yeah....but I'm going to the effort of getting the car resprayed and forking out for new body parts...which is so not like me

So I would quite like it to look nice and go fast

It's a bumper....whichever one I chose it's not going to add power to the car

Surely there is a reason why the 2nd one has lots of little winglets on?

2nd one looks a bit more modern, and bit less off the shelf looking, if you know what I mean.

Might be going for none of the above now

I have found a car with the bumper I wanted in the first place now so looking into getting a mould and bumper made from that

Like so...
