Hi, yes I'm a newbie who doesn't know anything. (now that I have that out of the way)
I've been interested in 240sx's for some time now, (I drive an old ford pickup but only because it is the family car). But when it comes time for me to buy my own car, I plan on buying an '89-'94 240sx, and swapping out the ka24 for the good old sr20det and putting on the jdm front end.
My question for you guys is what kind of front bumper is pictured on the sivia third from the left on the top of the zilvia.net homepage?
It's kind of hard to see, but it is without a doubt, my favorite jdm s13 front bumper. If any of you could help me out with the make and model of this bumper, I would be more than greatful.

ok well welcome to the forums , don't make an ass outta yourself , (you almost have already) , that is that complete silvis front end conversion , which will only be truly JDM if you buy a coupe , and that bumper is just an aftermarket one to fit the conversion , thank you and have a nice day

thanks a lot for your infinate wisdom s13cruzer <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':zzz:'> you truly are a genius.
yes, I AM aware that a true jmd silvia replica would have to be a coupe, which is what I'm planning on getting. And I AM aware that the bumper I'm reffering to is an aftermarket bumper.
so...back to square one, can any one tell me the BRAND of bumper that is pictured 3rd from the left on the zilvia.net main page? I know it is a jdm front end with an aftermarket bumper...I just want to know who makes the bumper. Thanks!

I don't know the brand of the bumper, but it's a skyline replica, but mckinney motorsports (http://www.mckinneymotorsports.com/sale.php) has a picture of it on one of the cars on their site, may want to check with them <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

hey, thanks a bunch 95civicex <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
I'll try contacting them...but if anyone else knows who makes this front bumper, please leave a post.
I have seen this style bumper on s13 silvias in quite a few japanese drifting videos I've downloaded...I'm guessing it's made by a japenese company who doesn't readily make their parts available to the U.S. (I've scoured U.S. branched companies and haven't found it once).
thanks!

The Sil-80 has that front end and it was a production car (just a limited editon).
