your opinions on 200sx bumper vs: gtr front

on my SER: im not really sure what to do. my bumpers are messed up but the sideskirts are good. i decided ona 98 style rear bumper with stock sideskirts now for the front....this bumper would replace my messed up front bumper with the oem look and the fogs fit perfectly.

then theres the gtr bumper which looks badass and very similar to the OEM front bumper (^pic above) but it sits about an inch lower than the skirts and its more expensive.

and i really would like any reccomendations for a 2 1/2 driving light that really lights it up (is that the right size for the erebuni gtr bumper?)

OEM bumper with stillen lip will flow perfectly for your car... since u already have the se-r side skirts and a 98 rear bumper i think itll look really slick and clean with that set up.

It depends on what you want to do with the car.

Street/Race = OEM w/ lip
Show = GTR

The invader hood will be a bit much for that set up, but who gives a fuck... if you like it, do it

lol...yeah its pretty extreme but i think the triangular line angles from the grill on b-14s matches with the invader hood. it won't look too shabby and OEM's way cheeper. im just gonna make this all functional as fast as possible!

I'm a fan of the GTR bumper (I had one b4 the accident). It is a very nice and strong bumper, but it is alot lower than you think, It's very easy to scrape the bottom of the bumper. Also, there aren't many non-ricy fogs that fit those holes right. I think the OEM one looks just fine.
