classy front bumper advice for WRX

I'm not a huge fan of the front bumper on my WRX and I don't care much for the one's I found at japanparts either. Anybody know of any classy looking front bumpers that make the car look more like a luxury car (i know it's a stretch). I don't care much for the hole for the radiator/fmic.

^^^ I agree

if u remove the hole for the radiator, won't the car die or explode or something?

you could try http://www.takakaira.com too, but I find it hard to navigate.

Seriously though I doubt you'll find something that removes the radiator hole cuz its kinda necessary, and if you just want a different look, its kinda personal preference.

my bad... it was late when I posted that.... I think the radiator hole makes it difficult for the car to look "luxurious"... but I'm sure it could look good if there was a a bumper with a wire screen or something like that

You could always add a wire screen to your car... or probably to most of the aftermarket bumpers if not all.

That looks like a demented version of the Legacy B4 Blitzen's kit 0_o

Why not try the Alles Create Griffin kit? It's pretty understated IMHO. Combine it with maybe a Prova front grill and I think you just might be in business

Wait...you want it to look more like a luxury car, but you like the SYMS front bumper?!?! You're kidding right...that looks more like Optimus Prime than anything having to do with luxury...not baggin on the taste, just that that bumper is NOT luxury looking...

euro kit by corazon

if you want a styleish looking body kit check out the euro one by corazon. I would say its the best looking one if your going for style and class, but if you want classy and you like the syms than your definition of classy far differs from mine.
