Anyone know any non-ricy body kits? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

ghostuss · 02-04-2004, 05:12 PM

Yea anyone got one of those good looking yet not too showing body kit? I want to make my zenki (96 240sx) a sleeper yet I need some new bumpers since the ones I have right now is cracking...

Also, what are your guy's common on carbon fiber hood? Waste of money? ricy? how much weight does it reduce by? My hood is also in pretty bad condition, I am either going to repaint it or get new c-hood. I can get a c-hood for around 400 shipped should I go for it or save the money on performance mods?

Why not buy an OEM bumper on the classifieds, also search the gallery for cars, then find the one with the bumper style you like and I am sure someone on here would know exactly which one it is.

ultraprince · 02-04-2004, 05:27 PM

most Nissan body kits are big. i wouldn't call them ricey (well because i'm asian and it's an insult) but they are built to work. if you want to keep it a sleeper, just get a stock one. like matlock said.

Hey matlock, you know the white 240 zenki in the drift bible. what kit is that? This is a trial, but it has that car in it also.

I hear they are optional AERO...then I hear they are optional Navan aero....either way they were optional and look nice.

SimpleS14 · 02-04-2004, 09:50 PM

Here's a kit that I like...yet I have no idea who makes it...

Only the front bumper cover, 3 piece wing, and lightless trunk (japan only) are part of the "Aero" package, you will see s14 zenki with the names Silvia Q's Aero and silvia K's aero thats where the package comes from.

The sideskirt and rear valences (not the ones on caR) are dealer optional items and are just called dealer option skirts and valence. Navan a dealer accesory maker is the designer or manufactuer of the wing and theres a navan emblem on the wing. Jspec.com owner called it navan bumper cuz he didnt have a name for it a while ago hence the confusion with many people.

How do i know? since thats my car i hope i know correctly

i got it from jspec.com a while ago, what i payed im not at liberty to say but...the part isnt very hard to find in japan but it can be hard to find clean with signals like how i got mine.

BlackS14 · 02-05-2004, 05:21 AM

I'm a HUGE fan of the INGS kit myself....

I plan to mate the rest of the kit with an OEM front bumper paired with the GRacer lip...almost the same look as the INGS front bumper....and doesn't cost $700+ to boot

-Bill

s14xman · 02-05-2004, 09:41 AM

I'm another fan of the OEM bumper with SE lip. Here is my car back in the day with cut out lower grill. It looks a lot cleaner with the grill cut out

samiam · 02-05-2004, 09:53 AM

Gpsports, ings, all those are pimp....but if you want more of a sleeper look go w/ the Navan Aero ie. front bumper, skirts, and rears, there is the wing also....Im selling a navan front bumper and wing this weekend to a local guy..and I love that bumper I thought I would never part w/ it...but things happen; oh well. I'd have to say just find a navan package usually Jspec or jarcoinc have a few every now and then, you'll be more than pleaz'd especially if it come w/ all the lights..same as the kit in reply #18 Wylins that's a navan kit I have the same one with the navan plate that it originally comes w/ it has a plastick Navan plate with a protective screen , that's the only reason I know it's navan ....
