technically would it be cheaper to go with the srt-d front bumper or to buy an srt bumper and fill in the "nostrils". ( yea i know some of u dont like the srt-d but im just pitchin the idea)

Isn't the SRT-D alot more expensive than the SRT bumper?

yea, i believe its 750 while the srt4 is around 500. personally, i like the srt-d plus i dont have any plans of a turbo anytime soon so the nostrils would be unneccassary.

you can find a srt-d for -much- cheaper than 750. Where are you looking?

They are actually about the same MSRP. Find one used. :) It will be much cheaper as Jake said.

howell automotive sells one for 425 ,I believe. Its much nicer than the regular SRT-D, it actually has a lip like the regular SRT bumper.

I honestly couldnt tell you. supertrick_05, or someone else with a SRT-D bumper conversion could probably tell you.

Isn't the SRT-D bumper W/O the lip?

the one from howeel has the lip though, its not the dealership one

...I like the lip better too, dont you?

anyway, IIRC, the SRT hood is longer than the neon hood. So, unless you have a SRT hood, there will be a gap. 3/4" to and inch I believe.
