sorry double post

93s13 · 05-17-2006, 05:11 PM

can you guys also make replicas of the oem rear valence for the coupe? as i am sporting a 240sx coupe

*ManoNegra* · 05-17-2006, 05:14 PM

If you read the thread he clearly states that they're only gauging interest in the kouki replica kit at the moment and other Nissan kits would come with time.

alexchanman · 05-17-2006, 05:26 PM

why does everyone hate on the plate up front?!??!?! it seems so logical to have one since it comes on the oem bumper and actually gives you a place to put instead of finding the perfect place to put it.

HyperTek · 05-17-2006, 07:42 PM

just make the front end at the least.. its the most important part of the package..

Just replicate something like G-Grow like on member KuruptR's car.. hope he doesnt mind this..

I would be interested in a replica kit as long as you can ship to Hawaii.

Jung918 · 05-18-2006, 03:56 AM

I'm interested in the front bumper with no plate holder.

yokotas13 · 05-18-2006, 04:11 AM

id get the rears and sides, if they were a better price. I can get NEW OEM for that

*ManoNegra* · 05-18-2006, 08:37 AM

^ I was thinking along those lines too. I don't know about new but you can definetily find used ones (sides and valence) in good shape for that price.

They hate, because from an esthetic point of view it messes with the lines of the front end. It totally disrupts the flow of the bumper line.

*exitspeed* · 05-18-2006, 10:46 AM

I would be interested as long as fitment is as good as you say and price stays reasonable...

I would have to say front plate spot though, just cause cops are harsh around here...

Yes! This is exactly the kind of bumper I would buy in a heartbeat. You have a sizeable vent for the extra cooling that the RB guys need (RBs run really hot) and if you just throw a couple of brackets in the opening you can mount a front license plate no problem. This option has the best of both worlds.

91CRXsiR · 05-19-2006, 12:38 AM

I believe there is already a G Sonic copy for the Coupe.. at least I have the rear and sides for the coupe already.. I have to check w/ my buddy

weei2 · 05-19-2006, 06:42 AM

ok...i have talked to ken and were leaning to make the front end to look like this:

let me know what you guys think

thanks

mr_240sx · 05-19-2006, 07:24 AM

pic doesnt load for me

Bushido · 05-19-2006, 09:24 AM

the vent is ugly. i prefer having clean lines across the front of the bumper than having an obtrusive vent stuck in there or a license plate holder. make it clean, and if people wish to add the vent they can cut a hole.

alexchanman · 05-19-2006, 12:28 PM

have it oem styling with the plateholder. or at least make an option for it.

that vent is awesome

someone make a universal vent like that

AWDtoyota · 05-19-2006, 02:50 PM

That's exactly how I would want it to look. Perfect.....do it....

If the final product looks like that, then you have a sale on the front bumper, as well as the one-piece side skirts. But it don't look like anyone else shares my tastes.....

rossfashow · 05-19-2006, 03:13 PM

dude that falken lip looks soooo sick! i share your tastes awdtoyota. and dude i hope when they make this.. this is perfect oem fit! in that case i am mad down for the purchase!

Sway500 · 05-19-2006, 03:42 PM

I would be down for the front bumper as long as the front plate holder/ space is eliminated.

So... Hotroad style?

Fuck yea, i think that looks rad. its different from a straight OEM copy, so its got a bit more taste to it! I like. Plus, you can still put the license plate on the 2 vertical "bars" of the front vent if you want. My Hotroad bumper even came with recessed threaded inserts to screw the license plate bolts into. :thumbup:

weei2 · 05-19-2006, 06:04 PM

haha...how about vote for a beefier lip?

like the hotroad style.

ok, so the question is:

would you like to have OEM style lip of beefier lip?

vote now!

SoSideways · 05-19-2006, 09:25 PM

Beefier lip so the front bumper looks lower.

I've talked to Ken before about his kits. ALot of FD, Z33 owners love his kits.

But to many companies have copies already, although his materials are far better than most copy cat companies out there.

sblack13 · 05-20-2006, 01:11 AM

i'm not a fan of the vent. Seems like a lot of people on here are, but is there a possibility you will produce both? I would for sure buy a kit.
