Anyone know where i can get a replica C-west DRFT rear bumper, im thinking about buying a origin stylish for my kouki but i HATE the low drop origin rear bumper.

IMO its VIPish, ricey, ugly looking.

The reason i ask its because the authentic goes for 380-450 plus shipping and i don't think i want to spend more than half of what the origin cost just for the rear.

Wow, I've never seen that rear before. It's pretty cool and very different.

I highly doubt you'd be able to find a replica of it though, it's gotta be pretty rare. I'd troll eBay and see if one pops up on there.

I personally think that's REALLY ugly. Suit yourself though.

As far as I know, nobody makes a copy of the DRFT S14 rear.

It looks ok on the pic the OP posted, but that black s14 looks horrid, sorry.

Oh i see, well the reason i asked was because on this zenki vs kouki headlight bracket thread. This guy had the front bumper and claimed it was a replica of the DRFT c-west front. Anyway i probably should of asked him huh lol

So what does the front bumper have to do with the rear bumper?

I like that bumper a lot.

That black s14 just needs different wheels.

since he has a replica of the front, he may know where to get a replica of the rear?

my turn signals are starting to piss me off. they keep blinking fast like a bulb is out but i have changed them all out to brand new ones and tried two different bulb types, same result. i am almost ready to just leave them blinking fast.

Exactly what he said, wouldn't be a better idea if a company just knocked off the whole kit instead of just the front?

Im just looking for a cleaner not so low rear bumper, IMO the origin aggressive is ricey as hell, and the super made and yet people seem to love those kits......

Well, god forbid I suggest such a thing, but you COULD get some pride and buy the *gasp* REAL kit.

I'm pretty sure that Nissan bumper has absolutely NOTHING to do with the C West DRFT bumper that this thread is about.

Care to elaborate?

Well, Nissan OEM bumper looks pretty good and fairly easy to find, so just get that one and be done with it. That's what I meant. If OP wants a unique rear bumper, I'd get Euro spec rear bumper. Forgive me if my post was not related to this thread.

I was just wondering if there was an alternative. Most likely that's what i am gonna end up doing if i decided whether to go body kit or K's aero.
