So I figured this guy took a s13 bumper and fiberglassed in the foglights but cant find a bumper like it anywhere, look at every rx-7, s13, s15 bumper out there, couldn't find the match to the front and back. Seen a few that are similar but doesn't have the special look/notch that you see at the bottom of the nose in the center.

I was looking to round my 240sx front end a bit like this but need help finding the bumpers like this that doesn't take a special order from japan hopefully.

It could be from down under, judging by the plates.

sold there under the maker name 'All Round', now i need some yen

instead I may just buy the $95 turn signals from ebay and graft them into my bumper making my car look like a poser, I already use the integra style fixed headlights.

I'm gonna chop this bumper up to fit my s13, may take forever to fibgerglass perfectly but worth it for a custom one off design.

I'll post pics when I'm done so you can all have a good laugh.

looks like a wanna-be FD.

If you want your s13 to be a wannabe fd3s... then I guess? whatever floats your boat.

I kinda like my s13 to look liek an s13. no tricks or gimmicks to fool the naked eye.

the best part of those pictures is the garage that the car is in.

i wish i had a huge open indoor area to do car stuff.



i agree with adrian though. dont put mazda lights on your 240. thats wiggidy-wack-sauce, son.

also, they have 180s in Canada. so thats not a good thing to base the location on.

and ALSO, it couldve just been a 240sx with a 180sx center garnish and a right hand drive conversion.

jeez.

Rice BoiZ! Have you even taken measurements between the FD and 180SX? The FD sits really low and the bumper on it will look like **** on 180SX.

I would advise to just cut out the bumpers made for 180SX using dremel tools and a lot of labor.Any ghetto job you do to your car should stay hidden if you want to have hot ricer looks.

In the latest JDM Insider DVD when they go the T S garage, they show a nice 180SX that has the RX7 front bumper. That one looks bad. He needs more agressive wheels and ditch that huge *** wing. It doesn't look that bad, if it's done right.

the thing is fd's body lines are about 7000x better then an s13, making the bumper look horrible on the s13

and as for r32 rear conversion, waaaay to much time and money to waste on tail lights
