Not liking the g6e front bumper as looks out of place. My g6et is quite sporty looking with lowered suspension, dark argent wheels, brembo brakes and rear diffuser painted 50th anniversary grey

So thinking of fitting a fpv bumper. Questions are

1. I know they sit a little lower so will this look out of place without the thicker side skirts and rear bar

2. If I choose the f6 Style will the stock cooler be positioned ok to look as it does on a f6, otherwise will go with the gte/f6e style bumper.

Cheers

Dude I reckon an f6 bar will look like poo, f6e style will look ok ish at best...

Considered colour coding the grille, see the herrod car,

A white g6 would look mean with a dark grille, even if it's not that dark and just 50th spec

that would look tough if you colour coded the foggys and bonnet garnish in white then did the grilles in a very dark grey similar to your wheels and put the XT head lights in which gets rid of the chrome inside the headdies.

I just had a look at your's wagman, looks good. Is certainly a cheaper option

So you think foggies white and not a darker grey like your suggesting with the grille. What about the chrome surrounding the top and bottom grille. Should that be white.

Is all this easy to do yourself or best to get spray painter?

Anyone got any photoshop skills that can do this ?

The darker grille and stuff would make it look better, but IMHO I dont think it will ever look quite right due to the wheels. I just dont think Dark Argents look right on a G6E, too sporty for a luxury car. Just my opinion though.

I get what your saying, but I think it can pull it off given it has the sporty lip on the rear and brembo's. Its just that front grille that makes it look odd.
