big or small bumpers?

I know this has been discussed loads before, but its always good for a debate, so who prefers what? I'm quite fond of my small bumpers.

 

Depends. small can look nice with other certain mods, but the same for big bumpers.

 

I prefer Big Bumpers, but on the other hand small bumpers look good if the car is dropped as low as it can go

 

Big on dark cars and vice versa.

 

Big.

totally car dependant

I would say that big bumpers look good on a range of styles, while small is a little more tricky to pull off.

My car didn't have 'em as standard so will keep the small ones.

Small for mine thought about changing them for years but small always prevails.

mines had small on it when i bought it,defo big bumpers gives it more aggresive stance

 

used to like small

but then i decided i didnt like the small back end, so got a back big, then thought i may aswell get the front to match

so big for me

 

Adds weight.

Makes the car look newer.
Makes the car look cooler.
All comes down to taste.

Big one on the front, small one on the back

 

I like both, but small bumpers look crap from the back.

 

I agree that small looks crap from behind. But I prefer the way they look from the front, especially with, low, low splitter . I would do big at the back and small at the front but would look too weird I think.

 

thats what mines got atm, until next week

 

small bumpers for me. even going to the hassle of buying new small bumpers tomoro

 

if small i think they need to be the chrome trim ones, the car very low and on wide wheels..

 

small on 3 door

big on 5 door (like mine )

 

Agree with Liam G - it depends on the other modifications.

I think small bumper MK2s should be as low as poss with wheels no bigger than 15inch.

If you have bigger wheels then I prefer big bumpers.

Also - I think only post 1990 cars should have big ones.
