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.

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

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

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.
