just got my kouki rear bumper and now installing valences.......Im still undecided about how to go with on the rear...I like the wing view from side but from back Straight, it looks like a cats face LOL....

also its heavy....though sexy from side and angled, not from straight back...Anyone Know what rear bumper this is???It has some kind of valences and i think itll sit really flush with kouki sideshttp://carphotos.cardomain.com...e.jpg

there already is one on here, the one with 4 lug wheels white kouki...But i shall once i detail it!, Spooled what do u think of those rear valences on that kit???Its like stock kouki rear valences upside down, I think they look pretty hot!

if i get them i shall be the first kouki with those valences on kouki sides, and jdm front bumper, and everyone will copy me after =]

hm, i think they will look too big for the stock kouki skirts. Look how big the side skirts are on the kit and they match those perfectly...kouki SS are way smaller/thinner.

If it were me I would go with valances and SS that match either OEM or that full kit cuz i don't think it will match very well. Some guys will rock an aftermarket front lip or a vertex front bumper that will match some zenki skirts and OEM valances pretty well valances but they usually keep the skirts and the valances as a matching pair be it a kit/OEM. idk, maybe it will look hot but just looking at that pic you posted it doesn't look like it will flow

that kit looks hot tho, I would rock it but I would want the full kit with the front bumper and everything

Spooled, here u go.From side it looks really sick, but I hate hate the rear....im debating to just sell the whole rear end make about 250-wing, 250, rear bumper, 250rear valences.And use that money towards suspension and just rock the base bumper....

WOW today was a s***ty day ...FML moment.Yesterday i installed rear bumper and valences, went to my work to detail as the used parts were dirty....Took some photos and after I parked at my friends house I was taking more photos and I find out my passenger side rear valence is missing...Im like f*** it must of come off on the highway...I drive back...retrace my steps and I find it on the highway...Not that bad condition..im like sweet thanks u, then when im comming back to my car, my drivers side valence is missing.IM LIKE f***, i should of put it in the car after the 1st one was missing, and i have to retrace my steps...and after 3 times on the highway I find it, unfortunately this was not salvagable...i come back thinking s***, I should of put more mounting tape on it....and go back and cry...I have 3 options1.Buy Pearl White valences again on ebay....250 down the drain.2.Try out the ING+1 Rear Valences3.Keep my passenger and rock passengery only....till i find drivers side in pearl white.

Good thing was i got some nice photos....before i lost my valence..=[[[[[[[FML

i love your car mrgrape, sucks about the missing valances tho...if it were me i would bite the bullet and buy another pair but I'm and OEM aero fan so I would just prefer the jdm kit rather than the INGs kit

getting new valances for 250 is cheaper than getting the full INGs kit but go with what you want, whether it be OEM or INGS

thanks..u were one of the inspirations like i said before...can u believe it was a zenki? lolAnyways I love OEM too, but im wanting to do something different in the rear.If i were to get the INGS+1 D=spec kit, I would only get the rear valences which is actualy bolt on to the OEM rear bumper believe it or not and costs about same...only thing gonna be a b**** is shipping from japan.

Let me show u some pics of the INGS+1....I want to pioneer the kouki's rear.Im content with front bumper and sideskirts but rear wise other than the kouki tails, I know theres something out there which will beat everything....some more from today i couldnt upload till i blur out license plate

Now some pics of rear MAINLY with the INGS+1 D-Spec rear valences.=

The one thing I like about these valences is that the width is really slim as opposed to other rear bumpers.....I still have yet to see someone rock these with kouki sides

that dark gray kouki up there is boss but the kit looks a little different from the white one...doesn't the sideskirts look a little thinner/sharper where they curve up compared to the sideskirts on the white 14? I think that kit would look sweet with a greddy lip up front

does anyone have those factory brochures for the s14 kouki with all the available options listed? I've seen some people post some of the kouki 180sx options on here and they are pretty interesting.

Its bull that we don't get any of these option, anything cool we want even factory we have to find it ourselves, that if we can find/ know how to install it.

we get the short end of the stick when it comes down to japanese cars but it makes our cars that much more special when we hook them up with JDM parts =]
