Mazdaspeed GTC front vs Mazdaspeed touring front?
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

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 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!

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.

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

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!

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.
