Technical Model A Front Bumper or No Bumper

I know I have to go with what pleases me but I am sort of on the fence which looks better-with front bumper or no front bumper? When I got the car, it did not come with a bumper and a freind loaned me an extra to see what it would look like. The car had been lowered with a drop axle and reverse eye springs to include steel wheels/juice brakes. What do you think?

 

Without

 

What’s on the back?

I either like a car with or without BOTH bumpers.

I like yours without but it has to have no rear too.

It looks good both ways, but I'd rather be driving it with a bumper. There's a lot of bodywork there if you have a minor accident! It's the other driver you have to watch out for, I know that you will be careful.

 

Nothing on the rear for the time being but the way people have their faces in their phones instead of what's in front of them, it makes me a bit uneasy with out a rear bumper-especially on a coupe.

 

I like 32 bumpers on model A's

Buy another fog light or chuck the one you have, bothersome visual. Bob

 

No bumpers...

 

I agree. HRP

 

No bumper

 

Think outside the box

 

Nerf bars can look good, and offer protection.

 

No bumper, no trendy single fog light, maybe some hot rod headlights.

Without for me.

 

No bup or Kustom or 32
I run a 32 on my A
None on back but have 32 gas tank

 

Nerf bars look great on a car like the green one above. The car in question looks good either way but I like it without the bumper.

With or without if someone hits you today it's going to cause a mess so I don't worry about that.

 

I like it without

Thanks guys.

 

Bumpers are for street rods IMHO. My car isn't a model A but if it was it's receive the same treatment as this.

 

There was a time when bumper were more commonly retained on Model A hot rods where the guys shortened up the arms a couple of inches which made having a front bumper look a little more friendly...

 

"No bup(?) or Kustom or 32.

So you protect the phony one, but not the real one?
