Well today my car ran off the icy road. Ive had a full safety check and everything is fine apart from that 1/3 of my bumper is missing from the front of the car. Nothing mechanical or anything else was damaged....thank god!

Anyway, seeing my car already has everything in Mazdaspeed, i will need to get a new Mazdaspeed front bumper, which does everyone prefer. Im not sure about the touring one, maybe it doesnt look as tough as the GTC. What do you think because the Touring is easier to source second hand.

Feel free to post extra pictures of the touring bumper as i just cant seem to find any.

Heres some pics to compare

 

I saw your post yesterday in the far east forum, sorry to hear about this man. I personally like the GTC bumper more and would be willing to wait a little longer/pay a little more for it. Neither looks bad though.

 

well their is a GB happening for the GTC bumpper happening from shine

Thanks mate, i was very depressed but its just the front bumper, im pretty lucky. Kind of fun shopping for a new bumper.....


thanks for the suggestion, ive spoken to shine auto already and have found that shipping to japan would cost similar to buying a new bumper from ms here in japan.

 

I'm a fan of this one.

 

Mazdaspeed GTC bumper.

 

don't those bumpers decrease road clearance quite a bit?

 

There aren't many aftermarket bumpers that don't...

I kinda like the touring, then again I've always been a big fan of oversized fog lights . I have a GTC sitting in my garage waiting to be painted and put on though , so I think both would look equally as good, go with what you like more .

 

The touring front is definatley growing on me... you know, something different, plus I bet the lighting would be great!

 

The GTC definetly looks more aggressive like the 93 zenki is to the 99 spec. I personally like the GTC simply for the fact the touring reminds me to much of initial D!

 

^ haha so true!

 

you guys are getting it mixed up. the MS A-spec GTC is the 2nd pic on the white car.

the Initial D looking one with the fogly lights is MS A-spec Type II

JKL is doing a GB with FRP made MS GTC bumper. modified to Damian's suggestions.

Initial D is dope...

 

Ofcourse, but what is actually practical about the FD anyway?

keep the replies comming, anymore pics of the touring bumper, i can say it is growing on me too. I think the GTC is actually more common, whereas the touring looks completely different to all other bumpers. But im still not sure.

Any white car pictures?

 

GT-C baby!

 

GT-C for the win.

 

i dont know why admin moved this, because i put it in the fd section as the subject is a FD and the FD section would get more replies.....

 

hey mate sorry to hear what happend , i would go with the one you have looks more agressive my 2 cents

 

I like the GTC more.

 

initial d keosuke-san

 

GTC FTW, really don't like the other one.

 

my car is white, so im guessing, if i went with the touring, this is similar to what it would look like, ive also got the same sideskirts as the GTC and Touring have the same skirts, looks nice to me!

 

i prefer the touring

 

good to see there is a variety of opinions.

 

Don't forget this one:



I wish ShineAuto had enough demand to make a replica of that "Touring" bumper, but it seems like that one is seriously unloved on the forum. I also really like the one above, but it's so rare that I don't have any hope of ever getting one.
