What rear bumpers align well with the MS bumper and side skirts?

I really like what Colin did with the RSX rear valence... kind of equals the point at the end of the MS sides...

not really a fan of any other aftermarket rear bumpers... I am just using the OEM rear bumper and rear mudguards :shrug:

I'll help since others hate bodykits, haha.
The VSX bumper lines up good with the MS sides.

yeh i would agree not just cuz its my car but it actually flows with it a bit
when i add the rims and wheel spacers itll give it that agressive looking rear
im also going with the ms front-- its a good combo i think :)
ill take better pics from the rear
jus havent been motivated to go out in this weather to get sum decent pics
its mid march here but feels like jan again :evil: lol

check out my cardomain i have more recent pics
ill post new pics tomorrow on here so u can have a better idea :P

I always liked that rear bumper, but now... :love:

Car looks good even with the fog and 14" rims.

...me too, with one exception. It is the erebuni rear bumper that was part of their "fish-mouth" style kit. It was basically stock looking, except with a subtle lip around the bottom and it sticks out about half the distance that the stock rear does.

I like the OEM rear bumper and mudguards too, that's exactly what i have on my car right now, but i think it's time for a change on my ride. U got pics of the RSX rear valence?

I have to agree with you, I really do like the way the VSX bumper aligns with the MS sides. This might be the change I was looking for.

I guess rekognize had one too...

And then I pulled this from one of colin's threads - I think he took some pics down since he put on the buddy club 2 rear bumper...

Even though I am an OEM mx-3 parts junkie, I think I may eventually do the RSX rear valence... :welder:

Also, IMO the VSX rear bumper is TOO aggressive... the point does not match the MS Sides... it seems to stick out a little too far :shrug:

I like this bumper too, not sure how it aligns with the MS sides. Does anyone have this bumper with MS sides?
