Question C2S With Only Rinspeed Indy Front?

Hey guys, first post here. I did a search on the rinspeed indy kit and immediately fell in love. If I were to mention a few, they would be the Wheel Experts one, Antz_997s's, and LvnLrg213's. Would the car look any good with only the front lip? Or will it be uneven and closer to the ground than the rest of the car? Thanks a bunch.

are you asking if you should also get side skirts, rear bumper or both?
i think it will look fine with just the front bumper.
i had the speedart front bumper with oem sides and rear and it looked fine, the only one that really needs side skirts is the ruf since it is so low and aggressive.
i got the techart sides and now the front sits alittle higher than the sides but i think it still looks great...
i think the rinspeed is one of the nicest rear bumpers though and you should consider doing that too.

your car will look fine even without the sides. I got the RUF bumper which looks bigger than the RINSPEED and it looks fine for me

I would not normally agree....but ABDULLAH your car does look great and would love to see it with sides as well!

IMO I think the sides just complete the overall look.I couldn't imagine taking the sides off of my car.

totally agree. Of course the side will make the car a lot better but nothing wrong if you considering the front only. same deal with RUF RT12 and GT3 both have bigger bumpers without sides.

Here are some crappy phone pics of my car with the full Rinspeed Indy kit.

I've since replaced the Indy front bumper with the GT3 front, but everything else is the same.

If you just went with the front without the sides, you will be ok. Its really not that much lower than stock...

Will it look uneven from the side with just the front?
