Z Proto Front Bumper with Cross Beam / Z35 with 240Z inspired grille bar

[triso07]

If you look at the upper right most concept in this image, they showcase the z proto design that we got with the horizontal cross beam through the grill that breaks it up.

I do really like the look of the large open grill as it looks like the 240z front with a bumper delete:

it might be nice to see a variation with the horizontal cross beam breaking up the bumper. Maybe as an option from the factory (which of course will never happen).

That looks great to me!

What do you guys think? We see the designers were toying around with the idea. Will aftermarket companies offer a solution for those that aren't lovin the grille?

I like this. Maybe a carbon fiber bar across the center where it looks blocked off with plastic anyway.

I think the bar completes the look on the front.

Same, I think it fills up a lot of the empty space up front.

i wish there was a maybe or undecided option in the poll. i would want to see how it looks in real life first before adding or tweaking the front.

Does anyone know where those pics came from?

One of the early Nissan videos after the proto came out. I don’t remember which one though.

Same room here at 0:16 though our good friend's giant head is blocking it.

Done!

Also merged the two threads since they were basically talking about the same thing.

I dig the crossbar and wouldn't mind seeing it on the final product.

Thanks for the chop @Haste! What does everyone think if this design?

@supra93 modified the grill... all I did was delete the front plate

I dig it!
