View Full Version : Looking for opinions on a new nose
Boxcar 06-07-2007, 10:29 PM How's it going. As some of you might know I had a run in with some Light Rail construction and lost. If I have to do this again I'd really prefer it to be something semi unique. I really don't want to roll into Sevenstock or anywhere else and see 100 other 8s that look exactly like mine. I really like this front end but I'm afraid it may be to aggressive. What do you guys think? If you have any other suggestions please let me know. Thanks!

However, I'd only look at bumpers made of urethane or something comparable.
BTW - that linky no worky.

Little more closed up even than you have made it, and not quite so boxy in that center. I can't really find a nose that I like enough yet to change to. I keep looking at the Racing Beat type I believe it or not, but I just don't like it 100% either. I like that type I better than the type II though.

I take it's made of fiberglass then? I need to figure this out soon. Sevenstock is coming up quick:(
MazdaManiac 06-08-2007, 01:19 PM I'm trying to make my way through their WEB site to figure our what it is made of.
BTW - in Japanese its "Odura". I think it got Engrish-ified to "Odula" somewhere along the line.

Thanks Jeff! I tried a couple of sites in English, German and Japanese but can't find out what it's made of either. I left Lazi and Japanparts messages so hopefully I'll find out soon. I can't imagine a 900+ front being fiberglass but we'll see.
that kit is kind of nice, i think you should get a turbo and a fatty intercooler to fill out the mouth. it is very aggressive so i hope the rest of the styling of your car follows the same. i think a park bench wing would be appropriate with this kit, like FEED wing or something.
this bumper is not something id get for my own car, but i do like it!
Lil_Gato 06-13-2007, 02:36 AM its not bad, just makes me think fo something off of Need For Speed Underground.. if anyone else noticed..
N rider89 06-13-2007, 04:17 AM bad, it makes it look like a Hyundai Tiburon
me no likes.. too bleh for my liking.... too many holes.
reaper1 06-14-2007, 08:28 AM If it does n't mention material , Fiberglass then it is. I'm shopping around my self and if the front end isn't urethane I'm not buying. The sides and back you can play with , but not the front.
The ones you have there look real nice , so don't wait to get someone else's approval, otherwise you'll never get one.
Good Luck
