HID or Front Bumper Kit??

I have a big dilema... I wanted to buy a front bumper kit for along time, so I have been saving up my money($320). Here is the picture of it www.boomplustoys.net/autoexe_m3.shtml. However, not too long ago all my friends went and bought HID kits, and they really look good. Soo~ I was wondering what you guys think I should get first. And here is the pic for the HIDs

no offense, but that bumper is real ugly. totally takes away from the (already good) oem styling.

well i think that a bumper is better than some lights but that bumper is not that nice i mean gay or ugly but if you like it thats your decision you know if youreally like the bumper g for the bumper but my opinion is to look for another bumper nicer and go for that check the 3 sedan amazing bodykit or check on extremedimensions.com the have a nice bumper check it out i have seen it painted and is really nice

I suggest checking my "amazing mazda 3 sedan bodykit" thread. Most bodykits in the thread mentioned can be bought as seperate parts, as a front bumper for example.

About that bumper, I do not like the hatch at all but i think that bumper looks awsome with the grill and the lights. It matches nicely with the blue and black, I like that a lot.

Ugly *** bumper

Well I gotta say that front and back bumper doesnt look to hot. The company who is selling those body parts/kit are just 30 minutes from my place. I have seen the product in real life as well as that blue M3 and I stick with my comment U G L Y. I say go with the better lights but dont buy them off e-bay. Go brand new from a decent performance shop or some one who specializes. PS I am not burning the company who is selling the body parts/kit just the style itself.

Now that I look at the pic again, the only real hidious thing is where the license plate attaches. Its right in the middle of it, and looks like hanging in the air by 2 screws...
