I just purchased the OEM S15 front bumper. Its ABS plastic so i dont have to worry about it cracking anymore YAY!! So what do you guys think? I know it needs to be painted but this is just a test fit so dont trip. I still have to wait for my masa fenders to come in from japan before i get it painted.

Looks much better than before. I'm not sure if you got some sides, but you should go get those as well.

eh pass on the nismo stuff, dont go cheap like your fenders haha jk, but yea they are cheap along with your old bumper haha jk again. Save for the real quality stuff. try looking for kouki sides or navan sides.

oem is the bset. just like what DRFT says

sorry, I was never asking for 200. I want a lot more for them.

I'll probably put them up on ebay, they'll probably sell for a hell of a lot more.

Its the Used one that Sam at Jspec is selling. Its definately not the G4, but to me it looks more like the ings front.

The thing is I cant really find anything from GP Sports that looks like it.

here is the link

MORE PIX!!!


they are Catz 5100K..do not be mistaken..these are NOT the other version..which i think is the Catz 5600K...the 5600K version the bulbs are tinted blue...the 5100K is the NEW version that came out before the HID ban..which give off the same lighting..but the bulbs are NOT tinted..big difference...low beams are H1..and high beams are 9005...the thing with my HID is..when i turn on my high beam switch..my HID bulbs turn right off and the high beams come on..i might rewire it so they work at the same times when i hit the high beam switch..but too lazy now

Silvia Driver im guessin thats a uras bumper?

yea..its the Uras type 3 bumper...as far as i know it..im the only one that has it here..there is a company that has it..but its not on a car..and when i say im the only one that has it that i know of...i meant only one with it on the car

hehe just kidding, i just dont want another s15 conversion with the same bumper as me.

exactly y i went with the URAS bumper...i had it ordered last Feb 2003..and it took a year to come..due to a bunch of complications...now poeple can order it np
