Whoa...wut bumper is that? I havent seen a carbon fiber bumper for S14s in the states yet.
looks likc carbon creations weave... i could be wrong...
definatly hot...
on the CF Bumpers I have had personal experience from CC, I had to do a bit of shaving to get the lights to fit, but that wasnt for the 240...

probably a japanese bumper (or taken off of a mold of one) and most likely uses JDM signals

Looks like it uses the stock zenki turn signals to me. . .

its kinda hard to tell by just looking since jdm zenki and usdm zenki turn signals are the same shape except jdm ones are smaller..

It looks like a version select/vertex bumper so it probably uses jdm zenki signals which are a little shorter.
Try:
www.jspec.com
www.pandagarage.com
Some of the vendors may be able to get aftermarket ones also. Some of the nissan vendors/dealers can probably get some new genuine nissan ones.
BTW, that bumper is pretty sick. If i had one though, id never drive around with it hah.

its probably a tiny bit stronger than fiberglass...so it would hold up better. ever see CF hoods in wrecks? they dont get fucked up as quickly/easily as oem metal hoods.

You have to use JDM turn signals. Then most liekly you to notch the inner side of the housing to fit the "hook" that keeps the signal in place.

UK s14 signals would also likley work as they are not the same as size as US ones.

More rigid? Yes. But that's not always better with front bumpers. An FRP bumper would be weaker in a collision, but also much more flexible. So in a 5 mph tap up against a soccer ball or something, i'd be willing to bet an FRP bumper has a better chance of getting away w/ minimal damage than the CF would. Not to mention, unpainted carbon fiber looks terrible unless you're the C-West S2000
JDM Zenki lights are for that bumper
just order some origin turn signals if you can't find the jdm zenkis.
www.modernspeedlabs.com has them

US zenki/kouki bumper + UK Kouki bumper use identical lights.
JDM zenki and UK Zenki use identical lights.

I'm not really sure, carbon creations gave me the bumper so that i could test fit it on my car for them. I think they said something about it having to be special ordered but you should call them to make sure. my guess is they arent sure if there is a demand for it ir not but we all call them and tell them that we want it, they will make them.

well, to save bandwidth and not clutter the board, its finally time for me to get some signals for my greddy, but i cant find any...i have looked everywhere...all i saw was kazama, origin, dspeed, etc...are there any cheap ebay brands? couldnt find any, i guess my "keywording" sucks...i mean, i dont justify spending upwards to a hundred just for signal lights...if it was up to me, id junk it and glass over it, but johnny law says i need them so any help would be appreciated...
until then, ill give my friends altimas a stab and see how it turns out...

no, it is a replica of VERTEX, version select is knockoff, just like origin
