    The front view of DB e30s (or maybe just mine ;)) looks more aggressive than plastic bumpers? That's just me though. It holds that 80's styling of BMWs.
    I love the front view of my car, it's the wallpaper for every electronic device I own lol

      I went through this "dilemma" on my early model.

      I opted for plastics, because they are pretty versatile, nearly any style of wheel, or aesthetic can be pulled off with plastics. Second was the availability and lip options. Next, the valances look better IMO. ( save for mtech 1 thats fuckin HOT)

      And of course, they're just alot more available than euros.

      I think it just comes down to the look you're going for

              It could look nice with better fit and finish. The workmanship looks rushed.

                  spend the money on real wheels and tires and put some white iS skirts on the car.

                        euro bumps and mtech 1. Of course, I'm partial. Don't forget the rare wheels as well.

                          I voted for plastics. That is if you do the rear valance like Trent and Josh did on their early models.

                            I voted plastics so you could have some cash left over to go towards doing as Mike suggests.

                                Oh there shouldnt be a question in your mind--- Euro bumpers and valance all the way! Buy one of Kronus's factory aero spoilers too, for the rarity bonus.
