I've done a search and haven't found much. Or, I haven't found some who can get ehir hand on this bumper. All posts seem to be at least six months old.
So, I'm looking to see if anyone can get this bumper, and, is willing to ship to Canada. Also looking for a price, lol. There are two people here on local forums, possibly 3 who want this bumper.

Anyone who just wants to comment on how they don't like it, or, if they're gonna tell me they searched and found something instantly. That's great, I don't care unless you intend on helping.

Thanks guys, but guess what? Already Googled it. And, all I got were links where people mentioned the Shine and/or auto. No direct links to a site. Shineautoproject.com doesn't work for me... I get nothing when I go there. Don't ask why, because I'm not a computer wizz. There are lots of sites that don't work on my computer.

just a heads up, you'll need a lot more than 3 people to get shine to make a replica..... hell, to get anyone to make you a replica.

^Shine already makes that kit. That's why he's trying to get ahold of them.

I like it also. Looks like it could came stock on Australia or something.

the chunkiness of the front reminds me of sti/evo styling
but the s14 is a coupe and not as tall

I love the fact we have original body kits. That's all I want to say.

Just keep in mind you'll also need the Kouki rear bumper for the rear valences to work. Don't forget to tack that onto the price of the kit.

I think the side skirts are pretty cool, but I don't care for the bumper. never seen one before though.

I bought the authentic Pac's kit from Ken at Shine. He's a cool guy, and so is his crew. So far it's the only one on the mainland.
I didn't dig the rear valences so I kept my existing rear valence. The side skirts are clean. I'd sport them if they matched the style of my rear valence, but they don't so I won't.
Shine's kits have awesome fitment. It fit just like the authentic kit. Plus, the material will withstand the abuse of daily driving better than the original Pac's. I'll end up picking up a Shine front bumper to save the original from getting more macked.

That kit isnt my favorite for S14
But if the rest of the car is done right, then that chit would look fine

This is my boy's ride. He has the entire kit, but he only put on the PAC's bumper because his original exploded to pieces by a semi truck tire on the freeway late one night. The kit he has currently is the OG Zeal kit; sides and rear (how hard/rare is that to come by other than those knock off ebay kits?).
Might I also add that this car was/is tracked(not drifting!!!) at local events and has seen time at Button Willow. I'd happily take this car over mine!!! Everyone's entitled to their opinions and whatnot, but Donkayroo, keep it looking perfectly sharp brudda!!!
See ya on the staging area...

the zeal kit that is now infamous for being the generic ebay "r33" kit
or the zeal kit that turns your front into a snow plow?

Like I said, everyone has there own opinion. His car has been around for awhile and no, it is not the ebay kit. Just never exposed it to any forums till now. He felt it wasn't necessary to do so until someone actually truly inquired about the PAC's kit such as ATUTT and he would attest to fitment and quality factor. We all have our likes and dislikes with each and everyone's cars, but I just don't see the necessity to express those thoughts to maybe discouraging someone to mod their ride however they want. It's not your money that's being spent, so why be a critic? I see that you've diligently brought up the knock off kit from ebay. Were you searching for a kit to buy? Why ebay? Are you an avid buyer of knock off parts? DON'T do it! Body kits down to those LED Kouki tails are wack! Don't buy em!!
If you want good stuff, I can set you up with a Vertex kit of your choice. Well, there are only a few choices really, but you get the idea. If you need new wheels, I can help you out with that as well. Just LMK...But please stay away from Ebay it ruins the industry that we all enjoy.
I may sound hypocritical, but yes Shine does make copies of OG body kits and I have to honestly say they're damn good on fitment/quality. I definately wouldn't mind for my own S chassis, but I rock Vertex and Vertex Lang.
Anyway, just my $.02...

Dude, when I first threw the bumper on I was devastated! It bugs me more than it does you...trust me. I just decided to live with it for now. It's not like I'm prancing around saying my current setup is "da best" especially since I've got my own gripes with it. I know you're not implying that I am..I hope.
I like how the sideskirts "flare out". It's very unique. Thing is, they don't flare out up front (the front portion of the skirts are in need of a redesign).
It's an optical illusion generated by the concave of the bumper's lower lip. The skirts are actually vertical up front which transition to a "countersunk flare" towards the rear.
It sure as heck ain't no BN Sport kit that looks like pieces of plywood were angled out to the sides and slapped onto the rocker panels.
I began my career in design so it's a huge pet peeve that I can care less about at this point. It doesn't help that I work in the automotive industry where I see exquisitely sculpted cars on a daily. I'm in no huge rush to fix things since it's only a matter of time before JDMspooge and I finally execute our designs.

LOL, me sport the snow plow...HELL NAW!!! HAHA. R33 bumper yeah, that's what came with the car when I bought it. Zeal skirts don't come with the "R33 kit" normally seen on Ebay. I usually see the "NISMO style sideskirts" with the kit you refer to. Anywho, I honestly don't give a caca busa, that's not what this thread is suppose to be about.
OH YEAH!! VIS R33 baby!

JDMspooge hit the bullseye "He felt it wasn't necessary to do so until someone actually truly inquired about the PAC's kit such as ATUTT and he would attest to fitment and quality factor."
Regardless, I'm not here to start a war, nor is JDMspooge. He's just like my Rottweiler...always so protective towards those he doesn't know. My Rotty looks crazy...and so does JDMspooge's S14!!!!
Hopefully Atutt got what he needed from this thread. That being the case, we can probably ramble on and keep this thread alive for another two weeks!! LOL!
It's late, and I'm craving an ice cream Drumstick! Peace be with you, and also with you...amen.

Yes, I definately got what I was looking for out of this thread! Thanks guys. I still can't bring up the shineautoproject.com website :(. Kinda funny to watch threads slowly go offtopic though, lol. This bumper is the only way intend of going form Zenki to Kouki. Since, finding the Euro Spec Zenki glass headlights are a bastard to find. Even harder to find someone willing to ship them to Canada. I'm not much of a fan when it comes to the kouki front end but I think this bumper ties the hard and sharp kouki headlights with the soft and round body lines of the S14 altogether.
