So I was checking out Velocity' Website (http://www.velocity.isfaster.com), and I saw this image of a zenki 180sx. I'm probably one of the few people that really like the "pig nose" front, and I'm digging the lip that's on there.
Anyone have any ideas as to who makes it, and where I could get it? Or is it a factory item that just looks really good at that angle?
Sideskirt ID would be nice too, but not necessary.
Thanks

I have an '89 and I like the "Pignose" look as well, of course I am biased just because I have one.
That lip really does look nice! I'm looking out my window and my 240 happens to be parked in about that same position and doesn't have a lip anywhere near that so it must be aftermarket. Either bought somewhere (I have no idea from who) or custom made.

Wow I hate the pignose even though Imma prolly end up buying one, but that angle and lip look really really nice. There are a few front bumpers that have the same pignose feature but look a little different. So it might not even be a lip, it could be a front bumper.

Thats true, Im looking at the picture, at the front bumper signals....and I dont see "Nissan" written on it. Our factory pignose bumpers have that, and for the record I like the pignose too, and Im just assumings its because Im biased.

the 89-90 bumper wil fit your 91-94 or so i am told.......they just bolt on so i dont see why it wouldnt fit. both cars have the same dimensions so i think you would have no problem getting it to fit....
i have an 89 and cant decide whether i want to keep the pig nose bumper or get the 91-94 bumber but seeing this bumper makes me want to keep with the pig nose.....anyone know where i can buy the bumper...(the one in the picture)

K Style (http://www.skrperformance.com/Site/K-STYLE.htm)
I found this at the 180SX Silvia Minimall (SKR Performance) (http://www.skrperformance.com/Site/180SX%20SILVIA%20MINIMALL.htm)
Not to sure about the prices, and I do not know K Style's official website. It should fit any S13. They have a different kit for you Silvia owners.

They also have a different fron bumper for the 180SX/ S13 Coupe:

IIRC, the 89-90 and 91-94 have different fenders as well as the bumper. Not much different, but just slightly, around the headlights.

Not exactly sure about the color, but ti sorta looks like the blue from Imprezas, although it might be a little bit lighter.

no way how could it be.. b/c when u look at body kit fittings they list 89-94... so if i get a nismo kit form erebuni.. it may not fit properly?or if i out an 89 se front on it won't fit?

The fenders are the same.
'91-'94 have extension pieces at the lower front corners.

IIRC, the only difference between the 89-90 and 91-94 fenders is a hole in the 91-94 fenders for said extension pieces.
So if someone wanted to put 91-94 fenders on an 89-90 240, you'd just have to drill the holes for the extension pieces (if you want them on), and the rest is bolt on.

I have a 90 240.
\m/(>_<)\m/
Where can i buy that bumper or lip, cause i like the way it looks.
If i did buy it would i have to like cut up my fender cause the bumper seams to like wrap around the car, unlike the stock one....
So if anyone could post a website wer ei can order it, youd be a great help.........
