Fangs modified
I think I figured out what I don't like about our front bumper cover design. I think the fangs should be pointed inward instead of outward. I am highly considering having a shop make the subtle modification on my bumper before I have it painted. Here is a quick mockup of what I am thinking. I used an image from a fellow zpost member so thanks in advance! I think it's a simple yet vast improvement. What do you guys think?
Here is the original for comparison: |

JM2C; it's OK but I prefer the original where they follow the line from above.

I like it, but your first speed bump will NOT. haha
for the best look, I think the middle area between the fangs needs to be filled with something

I understand, but that area rubs fairly often during my careful driving, and that shape would "catch" the ground even more
I suggest making a triangle out of plastic, bolting it on, and giving it a few days or week of testing before commiting to a final version

I agree with you. It looks better pointed inward.

OR....pick up the line coming downward from the bumper cue...same angle really...but would be a shorter fang extension than from the hood line. Might be a fun Photoshop to do ?? |
