Well, I got the bumper back from the painting guy and got right to putting it on my car. I need to refit the bumper because its not perfect, but It'll do for now....here are the before and after pics:

I hope you all like it....i'm gonna take some good pictures sooner or later...

 

Nice....... the ugliest part of the Z is that stock front nose piece.

 

Um...no.
I wouldn't say that CC.

Congrats WitchitaZRide, looks awesome.

 

sorry CC, but i gotta agree with rizz. i like the stock nose, but that jdm one is sexy.

 

looks great, best kit for the Z32 IMO!

 

thats gangsta how much did it all cost ya

 

Thge pimpin's strong the pimpin's strong!

 

one thing though, that friggin plate mount has to go. wrecks the whole look. wish they didnt have it. when i get a z32, if i ever put the jdm front on, that mount is GONE. give me a no plate ticket, i'll gladly pay it.

 

or you can always put a plate that says NISMO on it. liek the ones form ebay. that's what I'm doing.

 

The bumper and turn signals cost me 370. Shipping 105. Total 475.

I think I am gonna get one of those really long thin rectangular asian licence plates that will actually fit on that mount piece. Kinda give it even more of a JDM look. Looks like this...


I saw somewhere where someone covered the holes up and put a Fairlady decal up over that part. It looked decent

 

ive seen it completely shaved off, and it looks sexy as hell.

 

lookin good :thunmbsup:

 

where did you get the bumper WichitaZRide?

tiiiight

 

Nice Work. So your from Wichita, my old home town =0). You a part of "Nissan of Wichita" club?

 

you bet i am...or at least what's left of it...alot of people like yourself have left in the last year or so....but we're trying

 

looks sweet, but personally I'm not diggin the red stripe throughout the car, but at least youput it on the Jspec front as well so it's all the same.

 

its funny how that red stripe works....just about every non-z owner that looks at my car comments on how much they like it....yet Z owners are not fans...wierd

 

Maybe it's cause we know better.

 

when do you guys meet in witchita. I am from the little apple (KSU). looking for a club to join

 

I like the red stripe I think I know better but maybe not? Black and red are the best 2 colors!

 

www.nissanofwichita.com is where to go.....we just meet whenever....i know were supposed to do something this weekend...just not sure when and where yet

 

I think the stripe looks nice... lined up with the red brake calipers by coincedence looks cool.

 

You would think somebody would make a JDM replica fascia with the tag bracket pre-shaved. 99% of people who upgrade to the JDM bumper shave that tag bracket off.

To me that square obtrusive block kills the lines of an otherwise awesome fascia.
