spongey Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Standard rear bumper with the stone chip moulding taken off...like mine. :) Mine has had that taken off aswell but the skirts towards the back still has the pebbledash effect. When i get round to getting the arches done it will be smoothed over unless those shirts cover it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkysi Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I've had mine done all over. Had the bumpers smoothed and the sills when the car had its respray. Although it's not one of those really noticable mods, it gives a much nicer and cleaner overall look. Excuse the dead flies on this one...

spongey Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Its a pretty simple way of making the car look completley different i agree. Pebble dash houses and crazy paved drives went out of fashion for a reason ;) so to have it on the car doesnt do it justice. My front bumper must have been done aswell then as i only have it on the skirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkysi Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 There's a lot of work involved in smoothing the finish off the bumpers as it's molded into the plastic unlike the stone chip stuff on the sills which is bitumen based. It took about a day to get the finish removed from the front bumper and about half a day for the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spongey Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Also the Bomex front bumper has been modded. When you say modded do you mean modded to fit because its not a straight swap? I cant seem to find any places doing the bomex front bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongey Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 its similar to the monza 3 bumper. As sold by our very own Russ http://300zxstyling.co.uk/index.htm Thats lovely :) I like the bumpers that follow the original size, i dont like big huge bumpers like the veilside which makes the front look like a basking whale (apoligies if you have one but i personnaly dont like them) and this one doesnt seem to add any length to the car. What does that one cost or should i just email him direct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant seem to find any places doing the bomex front bumper. I think he means its been cut out in the center in order to fit that big FMIC in their. As for the bumper, You will probably have to order it direct from Bomex in Japan or America. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuffolkZX Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 When you say modded do you mean modded to fit because its not a straight swap? I cant seem to find any places doing the bomex front bumper. It will bolt straight onto a Zed but will look slightly different to the one in your picture, that one has had the bar underneath the FMIC removed and vents added on the sides??? Of course in my unbiased opinion the best looking front bumper is the Stillen GTZ-R, I would recommend getting a Urethane over glass fibre one if at all possible.

By the way the white zed on there is my zed before i owned it and put my mark on it:) If i wasnt such a mug i could have looked properly on his site and seen the price :wack: £300 Yours looked nice even before you started playing :) Dont suppose you kept the 99 rear lights in your garage to sell on for a couple of quid to a fellow white zed owner by any chance did you?

Sounds like it might just be better and cheaper to go for the one that i was shown above. I do like yours but the front under the number plate bit looks like it has a cut out, i mean that if you were to run your hand along the bottom from one wheel round to the other its not a solid curve? It has an indent/drop in bit or am i seeing things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vijay Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 it does have an indent ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
