    Default Tell Me What You Think

    This will have to happen over winter, but i talked to RPM and it can be done for a price which acually was a lot cheaper then i would have thought...

    i tried to color match it, but got bored
    the angle isnt quite right... and i dont have that paint job anymore... i plan on getting a touring spoiler or something to blend out the aggressive ness...
    and like i said i have those sides skirts and bumper of that proir pic...

    so my question to you is, is, will it look good... or is it to agressive..

    oh ya, and the only reason im acually putting this bumper on is because i need to feed my intercooler and they dont make ANY open mouth kits for the probe ( this is from a 240 )

    Looks like veilside and pontiac teamed up to make that

    No seriously though, It just doesn't suit my taste. I'd find another way to feed your intercooler. Probes always look good to me with very smooth, broad lines.

    Well if the Photoshop jobs wernt so BAD it might look okay! Not that i could any better( No photoshop exp.) Get someone to fix the pic and then the opinions might be a bit different.

    is that a bomex front , I was unaware they made anythign for that car....in my opinion I wild front end on a clean car with no sideskirts or rear doesnt look good......id keep it clean.....
    spend the money on a sweet set of coilovers and some killer rims and your car will look hype

    He said its from a 240, and RPM will mould it to fit his car. He also has skirts and a rear bumper laying at home, but the front bumper for the kit he has won't fit on his car (he bought the LX body kit because no one makes one for the GT)

    It's a bit much aggressive for my tastes... but it's your car. You should go with what you like, not with what everyone else likes.

    i already have rims, coil overs, side skirts and a bumper... but im not going to put sides and a rear on a car with out a front...
    plus i need a wide mouth kit for my intercooler there is NO way around it.. unless i feel like cutting a hole in my front bumper..

    30 psi with out intercooler is a big no no...
    240 is the only car that is similar enough to acually make the swap..

    looks like an early 89-90 240front end combined with a skylineish front end... some people have thought my S13 looks like a probe, so i guess why shouldn't your probe look like an S13...

    personally, i think its a bit too aggresive given the lines of your probe, but thats just me...

    what manufacturer makes the bumper? With the blue background, it looks like a pic off the bomex website...

    if you are looking for something else, just check out www.takakaira.com look for the bodykits for the Nissan 180SX... they discontinued the 180SX in 98 (think hatchback 240SX) so you'll have plenty of choices for front kits with big gaping holes that look good... hope that helps some...

    you can also check out www.autoimaging.com for some kits as well... don't get that bomex kit, you can find something WAY better (all my opinion of course )

    How's that gonna help ConVict out with his Probe?? Can you fit an 180 kit easily on a Probe?
