Definitely import only, and if you do, grab some lube...

I had one of these in stock about 2 months ago, tried to sell it, no interest...

How mucho?

DoriftoSlut · 05-04-2004, 02:03 AM

Sold it locally for 640$ cdn..

Salty_X · 05-04-2004, 02:25 AM

Wow those K-Style ones are nice.

Here's versions 3 and 4:

Is there a version 1 or 2?

DoriftoSlut · 05-04-2004, 02:30 AM

Yes. Version II looks identical to GP Sports Type 2. And Version 1 is the same thing just wiht no vent cut between the turn signals.

FWIW, KStlye ver. II came out before the GP SPorts one. Not saying anyone copied anyone, but it certainly wasn't KStyle (if it was someone).

andrave · 05-04-2004, 09:49 AM

I think you could get the look of that blue one by grafting the pdm racing 91-94 lip onto an 89-90 pignose bumper...
looks like it would be similar.

Doubt it. Why not just cut the oem lip, while you are down there attach some brake ducts for the hell of it

One of the URAS kits uses pignose signals, but looks more like a kouki bumper.

K-Style is the best one though

dutchmalmiss - Buy one and find out. I don't see why not. The stock one flares out a bit, but after a bit of work it would probably work out.

Dutchmalmiss · 05-04-2004, 02:14 PM

in terms of the kstyle version 2, would it be possible to make the blinkers have the sunk in look instead of flush with the bumper like that?

JtWo · 05-04-2004, 10:19 PM

I personally think the pig nose looks ugly, but hey, everyone has thier own opinions....yeah?!?!

Dutchmalmiss · 05-05-2004, 12:34 AM

are these the only 3 styles that are still purchasable? cuz i really like that version 3 bumper. anyone have it right now?

Thrill Capsule · 05-05-2004, 01:18 AM

Here are a couple, from bomex...

andrave · 05-05-2004, 02:05 PM

bomex has an orange car with a CF hood and a nice pignose front end on it...

AlexAtPerformanceNissan · 05-05-2004, 02:46 PM

Bomex Pignose...Sweet

F3600 · 05-05-2004, 04:45 PM

pignose is the best bumper ! but these style of bumper are pretty rare ..

Dutchmalmiss · 05-05-2004, 05:55 PM

i'm in love with that kstyle bumper. looks almost oem, too. the thing is if i want it too look nice, i gotta shave the side moldings on the side of the car too. oh well, i still want it.

CoasTek240 · 05-05-2004, 08:58 PM

go with custom man, fiberglass an cut and fill and add to ur pignose bumper

TheTimanator · 05-05-2004, 09:19 PM

I love the pignose bumper (factory, and the K-style) but that bomex looks pretty ugly to me. You know where the facotry smic whole is on the zenki 180sx bumper? I got one there now for my smic. When I go fmic, thinking about putting one on the other side to match. Not sure what it would look like. Also, I'm gonna pull those plastic black things that are in the "nostirls" and cut a whole in the plastic to make more vents.... copy me and die

na, I'm sure it's been done before......

Dutchmalmiss · 05-05-2004, 11:46 PM

i've already done that with the "nostrils." i need to put some black mesh there or something cuz i get more dirt and bugs and whatnot in there. as for the double smic vents on the bumper, try it out. i bet it would look aftermarket if done right.

TheTimanator · 05-06-2004, 02:43 AM

I'm gonna have to put some type of plastic tube on the "nostrils" to channel the air but also to keep water and junk from messing up my fan's electronics that are mounted there (or I could move them, hmmm). I'm also running a/c, so that's gonna be fun w/ the fmic, and all that stuff inside the front bumper and I'm not driving the thing without some type of reinforcemnt there...I'll take pics and post them whenever it happens, probably a month or so away though

Do you have any pics of your bumper with those fake vents out? just curious what it looks like (probably not much different but...)

Dutchmalmiss · 05-06-2004, 05:15 PM

alright, well ill try to put some mesh before taking pics, but if i get lazy ill just post pics later or something.

ledzeppelin240 · 05-06-2004, 11:36 PM

I got the fake vents cut out and I think it looks more agressive. The fake vents made it look kind of lame...Ill try and get some pics
