NS Mazdaspeed front bumper type I + RE Ameniya sleek headlights

So I was sitting down and brain storming ways on how I'd potentially make my RX-7 unique.

And while like most I went straight to the Sleek headlights idea, I started looking for a bumper that would compliment it and I came across the Mazdaspeed bumper Type I.

Now from what I've gathered from reading threads and doing some research, the type II bumper is a lot harder to come by.

And sure enough I'm struggling to find any photos of an FD with sleek headlights and the type I bumper.

So I'm asking everyone here is,

Do you think this combo would look good/bad/weird or whatever way you want to describe it?

Screw any headlights but pop-ups. The lighting isn't as good, they look awkward, and they ruin the resale value of your car since you have to cut it up to install them.

Sakebomb makes the BEST headlights for our cars, in my opinion.

Huh? None of those bumpers that you posted are a type I or II.




Tha's an old school RE-amemiya AD N1 Facer bumper (there are different years)

^^That is the A-Spec bumper

Anyway, I think popups when down look phenomenal, however when up they look like dog ****... As far as looks are concerened, knight sports looks good when up or down. Unfortunately the lighting sucks ***. Maybe the thread to replicate David H's lights will come to fruition... Now that would be great.

With that said, Natey is correct that if you want to go with straight sleek lights there will be cutting involved.

Yeah, I would stick to pop-ups and maybe modify with better lightbulbs or even a safe HID kit.
