Dude, when I first threw the bumper on I was devastated! It bugs me more than it does you...trust me. I just decided to live with it for now. It's not like I'm prancing around saying my current setup is "da best" especially since I've got my own gripes with it. I know you're not implying that I am..I hope.
I like how the sideskirts "flare out". It's very unique. Thing is, they don't flare out up front (the front portion of the skirts are in need of a redesign).
It's an optical illusion generated by the concave of the bumper's lower lip. The skirts are actually vertical up front which transition to a "countersunk flare" towards the rear.
It sure as heck ain't no BN Sport kit that looks like pieces of plywood were angled out to the sides and slapped onto the rocker panels.
I began my career in design so it's a huge pet peeve that I can care less about at this point. It doesn't help that I work in the automotive industry where I see exquisitely sculpted cars on a daily. I'm in no huge rush to fix things since it's only a matter of time before JDMspooge and I finally execute our designs.
LOL, me sport the snow plow...HELL NAW!!! HAHA. R33 bumper yeah, that's what came with the car when I bought it. Zeal skirts don't come with the "R33 kit" normally seen on Ebay. I usually see the "NISMO style sideskirts" with the kit you refer to. Anywho, I honestly don't give a caca busa, that's not what this thread is suppose to be about.
OH YEAH!! VIS R33 baby!
JDMspooge hit the bullseye "He felt it wasn't necessary to do so until someone actually truly inquired about the PAC's kit such as ATUTT and he would attest to fitment and quality factor."
Regardless, I'm not here to start a war, nor is JDMspooge. He's just like my Rottweiler...always so protective towards those he doesn't know. My Rotty looks crazy...and so does JDMspooge's S14!!!!
Hopefully Atutt got what he needed from this thread. That being the case, we can probably ramble on and keep this thread alive for another two weeks!! LOL!
It's late, and I'm craving an ice cream Drumstick! Peace be with you, and also with you...amen.

. Kinda funny to watch threads slowly go offtopic though, lol. This bumper is the only way intend of going form Zenki to Kouki. Since, finding the Euro Spec Zenki glass headlights are a bastard to find. Even harder to find someone willing to ship them to Canada. I'm not much of a fan when it comes to the kouki front end but I think this bumper ties the hard and sharp kouki headlights with the soft and round body lines of the S14 altogether.
