    Has anyone ever seen a 430 front bumper on a 360 . I was at a body shop and they had a 430 challenge car that was being painted . The front bumper was off , so I asked the owner of the shop if the mounting points on the bumpers were the same he said that they looked very close . Also the top of the bumper , of both cars where they meet fenders and the area where it slopes down and around the bottom off the hood are so close in shape . I would do it to mine , I just don't want to be the first !!!!

    I think it makes the nose look longer, and it takes away from the nice lines on the 360 front.

    Doesn't look that bad.
    Bumper seems to line up quite nice. I don't prefer it, but I don't mind it.

    The front bumper is the least of that car's problems, those wheels are awful.

    Total Blasphemy! Don't do it...it flat out strikes of being a poser and rather kit carish. I frown when I see non Turbo Porsches with Turbo noses.

    If 430 looks is your want -- Just buy a 430.

    Looks great, but so did the original. Far better ways to spend money IMHO.

    I like it.
    I think if it came that way from the factory few ppl would have issues with it. Some ppl don’t handle change well.

    call me a "newbie" but is there an actual difference between CS and stock? i think when your so into it like you guys you could easily notice these differences , im googling and dont see any difference, this 430 bumper actually works on the 360 , then again i havent seen any other angles, this angle actually looks really "tough" and better then the stock. Stock always made the front look small and pointy, this beefs it up a little "360 on steroids" but not 10ml a week just 2 lol

    Yeah seriously... Factor in how much you'll devalue the 360 with that mod and the cost to do it, and your better off just buying a 430 if thats what you prefer.

    I bought a 360 because well.. I like the 360. Why turn it into something its not? If I liked the 430 just buy the dang 430... haha.

    I mean I get the guys who turn a fiero into a ferrari because they could never afford the ferrari, and its the closest they can get. But the 360s and within 20% of the 430 prices now days, and you take a 15% hit from the mod + a cost in the ballpark of 10 grand to do it, your way better off just buying the 430.

    But with that being said, YOU DO YOU. If its going to make you happy.. GREAT! I don't have to "get it".

    I over-the-top custom modded a car for myself many years ago and people thought I was NUTS. Some people said it was hideous, but truth is its the only car I loved more than my ferrari. I made exactly what I WANTED. It didn't matter if anyone else wanted something different. It made me super happy...

    So if the mod is going to do that to you, go for it :)
