Need help distinguishing between aero parts
 
Hello, I need help understanding the difference between

1. Rear bumper
2. Rear bar
3. Rear valences


I'm talking about the S14 zenki to be more direct, but from my understanding rear aero is not particular to either the Koukis and Zenkis.

If I wanted to buy new rear aero, should I be looking for all 3 or specifically a rear bar and valences???

Thanks

"bar" is the term in other countries they use instead of bumper. Translation thing.

Rear valances are bumper add ons.

Thanks man! I was confused because several different forum sites were using the term "bar", but looking back on it I think they were UK or Australian forums lol.

That is not all the way true.


USDM/EDM zenki's and koukis have the same bumper as does the JDM zenki


JDM koukis have different rear bumpers


Valances only came on the JDM models iirc. There are different valances for the zenki and kouki's as the bumpers differ.


Same with wings, you have your usdm/edm wing, the jdm navan zenki wing, then the kouki wing.
