My new bumper has arrived...*PICS*

I wanted something different, and needed to get rid of my veilside lip because of all the scratches it leaves on the bumper from shifting up and down....zero can comment on that since he had the same problem... The vendor used greyhound for shipping...absolutely the WORST shipper out there imo. Luckily, no damage (unlike many other ppl have reported). It's polyurethane btw.




With new smoked sidemarker:



grill:

It's the "N-Style" bumper by gruppe-s.com, cost them a pretty penny to make that bumper. Fit is perfect and it's polyurethene. Seems like it's doing well, they are always out of stock.... sold my old CF lip today for $350.

Well lets hope it doesnt hang too low to make your sides and rear look too plain.

nice ..i always liked the nismo bumper but when i had my z the only thing around was made of fiberglass or cf and they were $$$. gruppe-s has a great rep so im sure its a quality piece.

you got 350$ for that lip?? i don't think i even paid that much new for mine. good deal. i kept it on my car when i sold it because like you said it scratched the crap out of the paint underneath it. terrible design.
