Don't go plastic bumpers on an early model; do it right and go euro valence with euro bumpers
I've never thought plastic bumpers looked right with that rear valence

I thought it doesn't look too bad. Ideally a 325ES/IS front looks pretty sharp, I am simply not a fan of how the fogs are mounts on this car..
I guess I shall start with a bumper tuck.
Diving board with late model valance, no bumper tuck. (My car is this color, same suspension. Eibach/Bilstein)

plastic bumpers on an early car are over played.
euro bumpers with a bbs or mtech1 valence is going to be the coolest and most head turns for the time and money.
also you gave away the fact that you are from india, "shall" isn't used that way in the US. :P

Which is why I always recommend the thin Euro bumpers and Euro valence to early model owners. Looks way better than a plastic bumper hack-job and way better than US metal bumpers. Plus it has that classy chrome look and you don't have to worry about paint (because glacíerblaü is a níche color and will be very hard to find paint matched bumpers for)

I actually prefer it; would love to pick up a 1987 iS just so I can have the early model rear valence/lights but euro it outLast edited by JinormusJ; 02-05-2015, 01:15 PM.
