well ive been lurking around the exterior forums and galleries trying to figure out if anyone knew what this bumper was but to no luck. im really interested in finding this bumper all i know is that its jdm =/ so if any help would be great

 

Looks like a stock 2nd gen bumper with a modified lower lip.

 

That's what I was thinking. Totally stock 82-83 front bumper with an aftermarket air dam/chin spoiler under it.

Rod.

 

hmmmmmmmmm....and now to figure out the lip

 

I'mma stretch and say it's this airdam, with some moulding done.

that's just me though. Looks huggin hot! Maybe I'll paint my new Zed red ...

 

I think that's about as close as you're gunna get w/o some of your own custom work.

from the pic:



It's a RHD car... pic is even from a Japanese company web site.... I'd imagine it's some JDM air dam, or possibly some total custom peice.

 

Yup. Stock 82-83 bumper and what looks like a standard fiberglass airdam that's been moulded a bit and had the radiator opening opened up a little more. Looks pretty good too.

It looks almost as good as this one:

I wonder where they got that picture?

Add a little fabrication to the front lip of the hood:



Add some clear turn signal lenses... Umm... sexy...

 

the pic was from RS Watanabe website on their user photos. tempted to email watanabe and ask them

 

good idea, I will be interested to find out also. I wouldn't mind having that bumper.

 

Wow ... lww, your all-white '82-'83 style bumper is HOT! Makes me want to paint my '82 gloss white. But I'll stick with a Charcoal Gray/Silverstone Metallic two-tone job, with metallic red pinstriping.

 

Yeah, it would look even better with a clean camera lens and the new clear turn signal lenses!

 

Damn that red ZX looks awesome...

 

lww- Earlier that picture of your car wouldn't load but it does now. Anyways that looks awesome! When I had my car painted I had him paint the bumper the same color as the car like you did but it's not as noticable with a black car.

 

Unless the car is black, I think painting the bumper the same color looks weird. I guess white works too though cause you car looks pretty nice lww.

 

does that front end look like Haro Haro's 280 from s130.net's front air dam? almost but not it. anything we can get around here thats any similiar?

 

I've yet to find what airdam HaroHaro's is - but I've seen a few of those airdams in Australia [pics, anyway ]. Hey J, maybe you could make a CF airdam like that?

 

Wouldn't have to be CF. I could do fiberglass too, for those just looking for asthetic upgrades rather then actual weight savings. I was going to modify my existing airdam and make pull a mold off of it for a fiberglass airdam, but I put her in a ditch and messed up the lower valence and the fender. I'm gonna try to pound them out and still try to get it done with what I got. If not I'm gonna have to source a new one and just use that.

 

Is that damn thing EVER going to come out of the shop? I would love to see what the bill is for a year stay at the body shop hotel . . .

 

I figure it'll be done by MSA '06!

 

I know what it's like having to wait. I just got my car back after spending a year on body work, now that it is finally done I have to put it away for the winter.

 

I Like My Air Dam Better, There Not That Hard To Make, Just Get J To Built It From Carbon Fiber!!

 

yeah wheres my PM SHADY? I cleared out my inbox. I didn't get the last one cause it was full. I got a notification saying it was rejected. Oh, and I love your airdam. I take you aren't going to mind when I start replicating it

 

the air dam/spoiler i have is almost identical to the one on the red zx. i'd say where i got it, but i would'nt want anyone laughing at me.

My Air Dam Is Modeled From The Bre, Bob Sharp Racing And Electromotive Days, I Just Followed Pictures And Made It Real.


Ill Re-send A Pm J

 

Must have been PepBoy's!
