That picture shows a 280Z with a 240Z bumper. Your car being a 280ZX (S130 chassis) is completely different, I haven't seen anyone with a 240z bumper on an S130. The cars are radically different and while enough fabrication anything can be made to work I'd stick to modifying a stock s130 bumper.

Hmm ok
