    Of course you haven't done your home work yet.
    If you have right color and contrast go for

    even $ is strong abflug type 4 will set you $1600 to your door.
    Remember it is not only about how it looks also bumper must be fitted without any drama. Any body shop will charge you $80/hr if they have to fiddle if bumper doesn't fit correctly. Checked with few body shop and they said abflug is the best in the market when it comes to fit them. Zeb is selling one locally under $1100. You will be lucky if he has still got it. He was asking $1200 posted but you may get the bumper for $1000. Ask him. I wasn't that lucky when I was looking for one. Also do some google and other forum about the review for type 4. This is not the only forum for 300zx. Also twinZ and toyz yet to be discovered if they are straight bolt on without fiddling.


    Checkout few pics...

    Also sidenote...abflug doesn't only make bodykit for japanese car, they also make few bits for ferrari, porsche etc. So quality is uncompromised.

    J. N Hepasis is local dealer in japan for those bodykit who is one of the dealer for abflug for international market.

    The Twinz one isn't available for sale at this point, they haven't released it.

    Out of those listed I like the abflug, hit Zeb up he has one for sale...

    I doubt if Zeb still have it. RED X probably bought the bumper tuesday.

    Isn't that pic 2 in my 1st post? They threw rocks at me for posting it up! I like it and found a site that sells them for 780 bucks. Must be different to zeb's.
    I'll pm him and see what the go is.

    Great input guys, keep it up and I might save some hair.

    None stock them. even abflug. It takes 3 weeks to get one ready and another 4 weeks for sea freight. You can't get genuine new abflug front bumper less than $1600 in perth or $1400 in east coast. For some reason it is $200 extra by sea or by air if you are in perth.
    Zeb's bumper is bit different. it is type 4R.

    Love it or hate it I have done a deal with zeb and he's dropping it off tomorrow.
    Looks like up-grading the foggies is off (not needed any more) and baked beans are on.
    I can now get it painted and put on while they're doing the ganador mirrors and 370z side indicators next week.

    Thanks for all the different ideas,they helped a lot.

    I'll post pics up of the finished product in " my zed rescue" thread when it's done.
    Seeing that I was put off a week I believe it will be done ASAP. Hope so.
    Thanks again.

    WHAT!!!!
    I have a Homer hair do as it is and your putting me onto skirts.

    I have a plan, always a good idea they reckon.
    I'll get this lot done and eat my baked beans for a few months and then when the rear bar turns up, I'll throw that on with the roof spoiler and have a perve and take it from there.

    I'll post pics up of the new bar tonight. Zeb's even dropping it off this arvo. Something is making me think this is meant to be. Seems to be handy I have her booked in on Monday too.
    I'm off to put my snout into a can of baked beans, see you tonight.

    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm baked beans. My wife is often pushing for us to move down to perth, sometimes I even see her point normally its when I am reading one of the WA posts like this and I get to thinking how cool it would be to be so close to you guys. then I see the weather report and come back to reality.

    Nice choice I think budd and handy for you too.

    Oh sorry my bad, it looks like you are right, the Viper is the new TwinZ front.
    The Cobra is a replica of their old design :)
    http://www.tamparacing.com/forums/nissan-sale/478127-fs-300zx-front-bumper-twinz.html

    So it looks like you can get the old or new style replica from zcentre...

    agree, IF you have a stock rear bar. he wont. he will have the twinz rear, which will be lower than stock, as well the front bar. if left like that, it would have a high point between the front and rear bars with no skirts.
