Smile Rear Bumper reccomendation thread!

Hey guys,

I was planning to put on the FEED front bumper and sideskirt once they come out, and I was looking to get a rear bumper to match, Does anyone have a suggestion? Autobahn? MS? IngS?

hmmm... this is an interesting one... the front and sides are so aggressive that choosing a rear to match will be very hard... especially since Feed doesn't use a modified rear bumper


ok... I would say that the Re-Amemiya rear matches the lines of the Feed kit the best... notice the lines on the side skirts and the the sides of the rear... they match pretty closely

oh the bad news is that its roughly $1200

I have to say REA has a nice bumper there, but AFAIK there aren't any companies doing replicas of these now are there? =\


As it stands now its still INGS is gonna be the choice

I did not take it he was looking at a replica as much as he found a picture of what he thought was the r-magic rear and seeking confirmation. But who knows...

Well, the whole buying a replica thing comes down to the price, I've budgeted a certain amount of cash aside for exterior and minor under the hood mods and as a college student, 1.2k for a bumper is just a little out of my budget for now (Yes, i know, it IS very sexy and REA is never cheap)
