I'm a show and shine NEWBIE!!! front bumpers
 
Until now I've been all go and no show. I'm wanting to do a few looks mods to my car. I see C-west and Gialla on this forums every now and then. are they different styles of bumpers??? They arent the brand is that correct? because I always see c-west style seibon. I'm sorry I'm such a newbie at this I just havent done a lot of research yet. I am searching though trust me. Just kind steer me in the right direction if ya will on what the major brand names are and everything. Until then I'll keep lookin....

thanks

c-west and gialla are the name of the brand and the name of the bumpers man...

Johnboy1065 Nov 20, 2007 06:44 PM

ok to fit correctly you usually would not need side skirts would you???

TBSE Nov 20, 2007 06:52 PM

alot of people dont use the cwest sideskirts... it looks fine..

but it definitely looks better if you have the whole kit!

the whole purpose of this thread is I have a friend that said he has a bumper that he doesnt know the brand name of. he said either VIS or Seibon (he is unsure). and he said its a Gialla style bumper. BUT he said it only cost him around 350. He orderd it from some really small shop around her I dont know a whole lot about "show and shine" but I've heard of carbon fiber lips costing more than that. I don't put parts on my evo that aren't quality parts. I might just wait and see it with my own eyes but I really am not sure if Seibon or VIS would be in the 350 dollar price range. not on any websites that i've seen so far anyway.

It really depends if its a reputable vendor..... couple of my friends bought the replica jdm rear and theyre perfect....


meanwhile if you look at 1/2 the lancers on here their body kits dont fit right cause they go cheapo...

well i just think like this...
if you have $30k car .. why get cheap parts for it!
as cheap i mean... something that doesnt fit right or its not good quality!
not if you got a nice part for cheap :) which is always a good thing

lol yeah I told ya'll I'm a newbie to "show". I've been spending all my time and money on making it as fast as I want. I'm satisfied with my power level now so I want to move onto looks.
