identify this front bumper

Postby deaf_rattle » Sun Feb 04, 2007 7:45 pm

After seeing this, i think ill go the same route.
IT uses the top part of the stock bumper so the stock indicators are used, but the bottom 3/4s are aftermarket.

does anyone know how much roughly it would cost to have it grafted to the stock bumper?

cheers

If you are feeling handy then get some sheets of fibreglass and graft one on yourself, spend a bit of time thinking about where to cut and what you want it to look like and it could come out looking fairly good.

that duct looks like a Turbo A duct from a MK3.
Sure its not a mk3 kit?

Although the GT-R front is really similar, I have to say it looks to me exactly like the one in the pic posted by Si, minus the bit on the top of the duct. The rest of the vents/holes look identical.

If you find one of these kits id possibly be keen to buy one as well, ie land one here, make a mould and then make a few replicas :)
