Nissan USA Poll - S13 Aero Reproductions
 
Nissan USA asked that I post this poll.

Urethane is the one that should be purchased, because it's by far the most durable.

Yeah, other company's make fiberglass copies. The best thing from an OEM would be Urethane.

allntrlundrgrnd 02-13-2009 12:16 AM

+1 for urethane

jrocslider 02-13-2009 01:33 AM

yes, urethane is the best choice but how many people are gonna say "i'll definitely buy it if it comes out" and when it does they have an excuse for not buying the bumper because they dont want to spend that much money or dont have that much to spend.

i'm not saying the price is out of the ordinary because that's how much a kouki 180SX front bumper and accessories is in the range after all necessary items are purchased. i'm just saying that i dont think that as much people that say they will buy the bumper when it comes out will actually do so for being broke or other reasons.

its great to see Nissan still wanting to produce items that people actually want for older cars like ours.

aoiken3 02-13-2009 01:49 AM

even IF its high quality, in the end, its still fiberglass. its like saying high quality fat chicks. out of these choices, urethane is def the way to go

I vote for carbon kevlar because that would be very durable while keeping weight at a minimum. Also it would be madd baller.

shinhed 02-13-2009 05:48 AM

How about an S15 chassis reproduction instead?
:squintd:

ThatGuy 02-13-2009 06:04 AM

Urethane or nothing

Flicktitty 02-13-2009 09:07 AM

urethane.....what are they thinking of making?

spngr311 02-13-2009 10:20 AM

I wish there were more urethane kits available in general.

bloodangels13 02-13-2009 11:01 AM

urethane all the way... i would buy like 2 of them so i would have spare for my current car or another s13 i build

PoorMans180SX 02-13-2009 02:41 PM

They should make a Kouki 180SX bumper without the license plate frame.

And yes on the urethane.

Charlie 02-13-2009 05:25 PM

Urethane hands down

I was wondering the same thing.

ALEXTHESUS*PECT 02-13-2009 09:03 PM

frp

rock it break it replace it!

o1roadkingrider 02-13-2009 09:10 PM

Why not fiberglass?
 
The fiberglass looks great to me, but then I haven't seen it in person at this point. I have my past experience with Corvettes to draw on only.

Can someone explain why I should not buy fiberglass? Any pictures?

Wait a minute Nissan USA is interested in this stuff at this late stage?

Hello Nissan USA you missed the boat by 5 years.

S13 has turned into the cheap I don't want to pay shit for shit lowballing kiddies car. Its over. They won't pay for it anyways. LOL

bigOdom1 02-13-2009 10:56 PM

ill humor the thread and say urethane, but could not agree more with above

INeedNewTires 02-14-2009 12:06 PM

urethane, should make it for S14 as well, and shave/delete the licence plate square cutout. i'd buy it for sure

[email protected] 02-14-2009 02:12 PM

urethane like the pignose, right? :)

All OEM bumpers from Nissan are urethane.

9s13Coupe3SX 02-14-2009 09:04 PM

no abs plastic? light as fiberglass and more durable than fiberglass

punn303 02-15-2009 12:19 AM

urethane all the way

RedStage 02-15-2009 08:45 AM

And tell them to get it right or go home!

ABS plastic will crack and shatter much easier than urethane.

lflkajfj12123 02-15-2009 07:31 PM

urethane of course

that why i'd go oem over some replica

also a reason why shineauto is so attractive

Slideways^Jordan 02-16-2009 12:22 AM

I would say, yes on the urethane but at a very very affordable price then they can make the fiberglass a little cheaper then the cost of the urethane and they would be set. My .02 cents

azndoc 02-16-2009 04:37 PM

I like that Nissan took notice.

Just now....

Monooxide 02-16-2009 05:40 PM

Why Carbon-Kevlar?

It's more expensive and heavier. We don't need the tensile strength of 1000 midgets in our body parts.

gripstr 02-16-2009 09:20 PM

I hope its not of those things that are set to be released in 2020 or something

+1 for urethane

handinpants 02-18-2009 06:33 PM

Since Nissan is owned by renalt, I feel they should stop focusing on the 240sx and just bring
The 5gt turbo back, and bring the clio v6 to the states

SWAT Team S14 03-18-2010 01:13 PM

urethane without a doubt

Krunk_Dog 06-22-2010 06:28 PM

+1 more for urethane. Easy choice.

illvialuver 06-11-2012 12:06 AM

instead of Renault bringing the clio here Nissan just needs to make the s15 for the united states, would blow gt86 sales out of the water.
yes for urethane

FRpilot 06-12-2012 11:09 PM

i would buy an s15 in the usa even if they make it 2.0L n/a for the usa.

StepN2Boost 07-13-2012 09:27 PM

Urethane all the way. And to ^ if they sold s15 in the states, peep would be like...what's a scion fr-s?

I'd sell my 13 and all the parts I've collected, to buy one too. You can't go wrong, with a brand new S chassis. Especially a 15.
