RB-GTE Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) My previous 97 facelift Supra had the OEM JDM sides and rear spats, and for the OEM front bumper I installed a WEST WINGS style front lip with saved sides. Totally loved the look! The current setup on my new Supra is the same, except it has a replica Ridox bumper. The fitment is decent but the part that meets the bonnet has a 1" gap and really kills it. So either way I'm getting a new ridox front bumper from whifbitz, or OEM bumper with WEST WINGS lip? I also have a spare original bumper so I can make the change on my command! Ridox has very smooth lines and love the look as well but it has to be a good fit I am also considering top secret type II front. I just like a bumper that exposes the intercooler, stock covers it up for the most part. Car is moonstone so should look like this (lip sides would be shaved) Edited September 21, 2012 by RB-GTE (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB-GTE Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Not my car but another members which I found picture of, mine would look similar if I were to go with that bumper setup I currently have a bad-fitting ridox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I remember that car! Lovely car that one! I'd say OEM over Ridox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 OEM bumper for me, too A properly kitted car is nice too, but just a bumper change looks odd IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I've had similar on mine... Whifbitz replica carbon front lip... Whifbitz replica Ridox front... I much prefer the Ridox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Difficult choice as they are my 2 favourite front ends. I actually bought a Ridox front a while back but had some issues with it being delivered so got refunded and bought a stock front with RMM (Wings West) lip with ears. Now I am OEM with the ears trimmed. Looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideexitsupra Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Some better pictures of the Ridox. The other photo has the bottom trimmed for the Ridox splitter. Ridox every time for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB-GTE Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Oh boy I love Ridox. I think I'll try and see if there is any chance mine could fit well, if not I'll look into getting a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 OEM all the way, unless you want your supra to look like David Coulthard's chin! In which case go Ridox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
