99 Spec bumper- Is it possible for it to be "aggressive"?
So do you think it is possible to modify the 99 spec bumper to fit an aggressive style car? ie like TA cars? will a new front lip and canards ever be enough? or are the lines too sleek and clean to make a drastic style change? thoughts?

So cliff notes.. - Yes it can be done, but it needs less smile and more cowbell.
Just my opinion

Thanks for the input... basically im on the fence of trying to make "add on" parts to make it more aggressive, or chop it in half and hybrid the RE-A/Rmagic/99spec style all into one bumper...
i dont think it looks like its smiling to me, kinda looks dopey, but i do think the opens is what makes it looks too "stockish" i think that controls the aggressiveness of the bumper.. hmmmm
and without the lip the bumper is WAY too short (height wise) and if i made a diffuser/lip to replace the 99 spec lip, i feel like it will be wayyyy over powering since it will need to be fairly big (height wise) to lower the car, since the 99 spec combo sits pretty high

Sir Braps A lot
personally i think the 99spec front end with the 99 lip is perfect, its aggressive yet flows with the rest of the car. if only every Mazda designer had a picture of an FD in front of them when drawing new cars well i think Mazda would be in trouble for selling mobile ****.

Yeah of course they can be aggressive. I had one "fall" off a shelf a few years back and crack me on the head.
People say it fell. I say it jumped. Thats an aggressive bumper in my book.
JK..

Perhaps another option. Leg Motorsports bumper that seems to be a modified 99-spec.

ive thought about it before but its fairly common-ish imo.. looking for something different

i always thought about the same thing with the 99 spec front and what i came up was that the center bottom arch is what really gives it that smiley look, so i went ahead and flipped it upside down, and it looks a lot more aggressive.
or just cutting it off seems to work too.
although if you flip it upside down, it kinda looks like the feed bumper, which is actually what i liked and what i got on my car now lol

It's very possible for the 99 spec front bumper to be aggressive. I've seen a few here in Colorado actually, but personally can't go wrong with the feed afflux version.2 front bumper. The 99 spec looks awesome though man.
