I have looked on eBay and Craigslist and found nothing on aero front bumpers. Zilvia is the only thing I found and everyone on here wants top doller.

I always fail to see why people base prices of parts to the price of their actual car. It make's no sense.

You should probably stop posting now. What you are linking to is the standard Silvia K's bumper. Not the Aero K's bumper.

Here I gotta idea but you'll have to do the searching yourself.
SearchTempest Online Classifieds Search - All the Classifieds. One Search. (http://www.searchtempest.com/)
go here, put in your zip code and what you're looking for and it will bring up craigs ads within however many miles you want, but be careful some of the ads it brings up are expired.

Also this guy is selling his but it has had some zip-tie stitching so you may not want it.

You will have to be patient. It took me 4 years to find a K's Aero bumper for a reasonable price. Most of the time they are located in California and the seller refuses to ship. Because lets face it, if the seller lives in California, then they really don't need to ship the item they are selling in order to sell it. If you get extra lucky, you can find a mint one like I did.... but like I said, I waited and waited until the right one came along:

:picardfp:

You want the cool stuff that everyone else wants? You've gotta be able to shell out the cash to make it happen. You can fake plenty of funk, but you just can't fake that OEM aero.
Save your money. Watch the forums, and craigslist, and eBay (but expect at least $500 in shipping), and just hope that once you find a good deal, you're able to grab it before the next guy.

Japanese Engine Import had a COMPLETE Silvia front end conversion with the AERO bumper for $1100... Yes thats right, you pretty much bought the bumper and got the rest of the front end for free. I was too stupid and bought a SR instead.

Someone did. They made a run of fiberglass Aero bumpers and were selling on ebay 6-7 years ago for about $450. I bought one, still have it unpainted in my garage.

Remember seeing one of these way back when.

Really should have bought it, the prices of aero bumpers these days are enough to put a man in the poor house. Waiting to see if force works starts knocking them out.

It was close to 10 years ago (2004) and it was C-Tune Motorsports out in Cali. I had one their aero bumper replicas as well.

There is someone here that is willing to make polyurethane copies if he can get a good condition one to make a mold.
So whoever has a mint condition one, i would suggest you talk to him to make a mold and maybe a free copy or somethin for lendin him the bumper to make the mold?
He is the guy selling stock silvia polyurethane vent copies.

also, who would be interested in vents for lets say around $150-$200 a set?

I would pay $650 shipped for a quality poly replica in a heartbeat. I think there would be a decent market for them at that price. Most of Zilvia will probably complain that its too expensive but the ones that complain probably wouldn't be able to afford any sort of quality areo anyway. I would also be VERY interested in poly versions of your skirts.

i have a poly set of skirts for sale (the originals i used to cast the molds). i have since bought a second set that im using for the new molds! if you want the plastic side skirts i have for sale, im asking $600 shipped for them. theyre sanded, primered and ready to paint!

as far as making poly skirts, thats probably not going to happen simply due to costs. for me to produce the bumper, the price of the mold is outrageous! its going to happen, just not exactly sure when! but when it does, itll be all over zilvia and facebook!

im not gonna go into detail. i want to start a group buy now for them, but ive got a few minor things to sort out on accepting payment first. after january it will be no problem!

and i have a MAJOR concern with shipping. by the time the bumpers are in the mail, it will be around december and i do NOT want anyones bumper getting lost or misplaced while shipping with FedEX because of the stupid holiday rush.

I've got one I've been tossing around the idea of selling. I'm gonna go with a kit anyways, my rocker panel is farked. I'll need the skirts to cover it up if I don't wanna cut/weld a new one in.

Not clean, it's been ziptied together. Has vents, they're in one piece.

I haven't really made a FS post, but if somebody wants it, I'll debate selling.

Message me, I have pics.

just thought id update this thread as well since im a week away from taking the first orders...

test fit the prototype bumper this morning. took a little coaxing on the drivers side fender, but i will be addressing that this week with the polyurethane shop to make sure its rectified before the production bumpers go out (its nothing thats hard to fix by hand either, took me 10 minutes with a sanding wheel to sort out).

anywho, heres pics as promised! bumper was scuffed and shot into primer for photography purposes before test fitting as solid black doesnt photograph well. Signal_s13's car was used again for fitment purposes, he posts on Zilvia and can verify the fitment of the bumper as he was there the entire time helping out. i was personally involved in the fitting and set the bumper as seen in the photos!
