Redline Bumper Install

Ok guys the bumper went to paint, should have it on Wednesday. Anyway I photoshoped how my car will look when completed. Would like your opinions on how it looks as well as should I install the NISMO badge I purchased on the grille as pictured?

The bumper looks good but I wouldnt install the Nismo badge. Thats like putting a volk sticker on your car when u dont own a set of the wheels, or an AEM sticker when u dont own the intake. Just keep it simple.

Keep it simple and put your license plate behind your windshield for the clean looking bumper!

I like it.... just make sure you have at least 1 Nismo piece on your car and you won't get flagged for false advertising.

Looks better than being on the front bumper, I just say remove the front plate altogether.

You get a ticket for not having a front tag in RI. So thats not an option. Won't even pass inspection.

Its illegal here too but I have never gotten a ticket for it, probably about 5 warnings though. If you get pulled over just make up some bs story about why u dont have it, more than likely u will get off with a warning. It takes a whole minute to re-install for inspection.
