OK, I did some research, thanks to brainpig....

Old bumper was an Ikeya Formula.. new bumper is DRFT. The DRFT bumper is the one that has the weird notch between the headlights right in front of the hood, so if it doesn't have that notch, then it's Ikeya Formula.

They make great performance pieces, i'm just really not digging the styling... you have to respect a company that went the 240sx/ka24de route!! (500whp I believe?)

Chunki .....you da man.....i could not find a pic anywhere on the internet ....yeah the YF one is a little bulky but i like the accents around the headlights. ikeya one that you posted first is the one i was referring to.....funny how there is no ikeya sticker on his car but he has the DRFT banner on his windshield. right around $550 ugh. don't know if i wanna spend that much on a bumper. i just like how the huge airdam would probably help with cooling.

Shift_oversteer....i noticed your sporting the knock-off du-luck bumper...how is it? how was fitment? quality?

Thats not a DRFT banner. It's a Drift Tengoku banner.
