Nose Options
I had a recent mishap that has left me in the market for a nose. I may just use a stock nose but I wanted to see the options that were out there. I dont want anything to outragous but a little more than stock.
Thoughts? |

I guess I should mention the car is an NA
|
The Racing beat Type II is extremely clean in person.
|
Yea I have seen them and I like them but they have been around so long. I am also scared of fiberglass.
|
I would be scared of fiberglass too. I had a friend who had a fiberglass front nose on his Acura and he busted it up so many times he finally took it off and said forget it. I think the Racing Beat Type I looks pretty much stock. Personally I love the looks of the Racing Beat Type II, if I had an NA that's what I'd go with!

I'm in love with all those. I like changing things up, but I'm really really REALLY not a fan of gawdy kits... At all. I just like things to look cool and different. These fit.
|
Jared ur car be dope...lol
U should be collecting some $ from Cr.net using it as a banner dude... Is the Rb1 also fiberglass or just the rb2? |
Manufactured from hand-laid fiberglass and easily prepped for final painting..."
Source: http://racingbeat.com/resultset.asp?PartNumber=57100 I'm gonna take a guess and say that probably somewhere very near 100% of aftermarket body panels are going to be fiberglass. The tooling cost to do OEM-style injection-molding is just going to be way too high for the relatively low volume of parts that even someone like RB can move. |
They are both. I have only seen one that was urethane.
|
|
there are a lot of options. If I ever felt like spending money on one and I didn't want the pitcrew nose I would get this one from s2 racing:

did that antenna come with a remote control? j/k
|
ROFL!!!! thats what it looks like photoshop some big slobering kid with a remote in the background.
Red is all wrong the lemon it yaller! |
I kind of like the look of that bumper... But tell me, what is different about those turn signals? They look different but I can't figure out why.
|
Its a rev 9? Sorry, but not quite. It is actually the RS Aizawa. They were about $700 when R-speed was first ordering them about 5 years back. I was on the list for one, but took my name off later after finding my now Bomex.
http://www.rev9autosport.com/shop/ga...s/aizawa/3.jpg Very nice bumper indeed. And for the record, those turn signals look to me like a pair of smoked ones off ebay. Vash- |
What's next, a bodykit subforum?
|
Sorry I thought RS aizawa was the model and Rev9 was the maker. either way yea its in the 700 dollar neighborhood. I dont know that I am going to drop that kind of money on something that doesnt make the car perform any better. Besides there is a ditch or cone somewhere waiting to remove it for me anyway. OEM here I come!!

i had to mold the cwest bumper bottom half to the oem one. That rs aizawa bumper was what i was going to do a while ago but i just couldnt spend the cash. And yes, it is fiberglass
|
Yea I can hear is cracking already the first cool day I touch a cone with it.
|
if my car runs hot, I'll have to buy that.
|
????? Hustler is back?
|
dam that blue car looks nice. how much is that front? i know a guy that is going to cut his factory nose to make it look like that.
|
725 as posted earlier
|
I'm partial to a stock nose (get a what, <91 nose and you don't have emblem holes right?) with a Garage Vary lip. Not too shouty, especially if you don't paint it. Stay away from FRP though, even my GV is cracked, and it's urethane!

my 1991 brg (big nose crank) has no emblem holes. |
1992 didn't either. I think it started in '93.
|
I think 94 is the year they started putting the toilet bowl on the bumper...same year the 1.8 started.
|
Nah, 'cause my '93 used to have a toilet bowl on it.

go for the widebody kit!
|
The RS aizawa bumper on the blue car used to me mine. It was good for 5-7 degrees cooler water temps than the stock bumper, if I recall.
