I plan to run this bumper with no sideskirts. On the track, side skirts are just added weight, they really don't help with down force. I believe this is the most functional bumper for the S2000, as the front splitter probably reduces a little lift, it offers more air to the radiator, can be fitted to a J's Racing intake, and most important to me- this bumper has brake cooling ducts you can buy.

Also, one of the AJ Racing cars with this front bumper is NOT using side skirts.
you mean like this?

Lordnikon has the Full J's Racing on his Black S. Honestly, I think this bumper only looks good on the brighter colors, but thats just me.

That 852hp S2K is running one and it looks damn nice with the huge intercooler taking up the grill space.

It was in Superstreet july 2005

Actually is warrants super stiff dampers and springs, I'd imagine there is still good stroke on the dampers, like when the cars inside tires almost off the ground, I bet those dampers extend a long way to keep those inside tires on the ground and giving some traction. Also known as suspension "droop"

And yes HunterEZ, that's what I'm refering too. Front bumper w/ no side skirts, they aren't functional, just more weight.

I also notice every picture of that car has the front splitter painted, do you think they are using the FRP version, or the CF and painting the splitter?

Its a painted CF splitter. If you looka t some of the J's Racing event photos, they have pictures of the spare bumpers off with the paint scraped off from track use(along with missing chunks of the splitter), its CF underneath.
