+1 I'm in too . 180sx Kouki Bumper

93s13vert

dorkidori_s13

probably looking at spring time-ish...im going to need someone to donate a S13 aero bumper for this project. the bumper will be returned in perfect shape. the molding method used will NOT destroy the piece being molded. but ill cross that bridge when were ready

Will it be made with a provision for the license plate? Hopefully not as it kinda kills the clean look.

it will be an exact copy of the original aero bumper. we will be producing the mold from an OEM/real s13 aero bumper.

though i think we may be doing it out of FRP as the polyurethane is having issues with heat and things sag a bit (stillen had this EXACT issue with their bumpers for the 370z and G37...they stopped producing them in poly and switched to high quality FRP). but this isnt cheap 1 layer FRP like knock off companys dump out all day long. from what ive seen of the FRP his company uses, you can twist the bumpers in half and it doesnt break. the fitment will be SPOT on before we begin producing them though. i dont want people complaining that it doesnt fit right

the ONE thing im half tempted to modify though, the inside air dam. i know a lot of you are going to have to cut this out for a FMIC (im included in there). i may shorten it up a bit over the stock bumper since its the most annoying part of the bumper (and it also deforms really easily since we dont have the OEM mounts holding it in place)

Not really interested if it's not polyurethane nor if it's not exactly like OEM.

If it ends being a fiberglass rep, I'd only buy if it's stupid cheap. Otherwise I rather continue the search for a real one.

Also, what are your plans regarding the vent grilles?

How much harder would it be to get made in polyurethane/polypropylene like most OEM bumpers? I like the idea of a bumper not breaking if I happen to come across an unavoidable dip or something of that sort.

project is on hold for the moment, i will know more around april/may on exactly when im going to release the silvia aero bumper.

IF the aero bumper does well, i will see what i cant do about replicating other OEM aero pieces (i personally want some chuki skirts that arent beat to shit)

+1 for aero bumper.... sorry ik its on hold but DO WANT

Depending on the final production price of the Silvia Aero bumper, I would absolutely buy on.

The only thing is, a whole FRP bumper can be twisted on the longitudinal axis with out much issue when not fixed on a car. But what about its durability in cooler weather(not snow), being deformed on its Latitudinal axis, high speed impacts and such of the similar. Granted, I have seen many higher quality FRP aero parts sustain some fairly knarly hits and potholes, and the mainstay of the parts were fine with minor scratches. But then only to find out the mounting areas were broken off instead of flexing.

So basically what I'm getting at with useless banter is; If you can get as close to OEM quality as possible, but keep the price under what actual OEM ones go for on the RARE ocassion they do come up for sale.

Then YES. I would absolutely buy one. Because it would be entirely new and unpainted.

Also a side idea or two.
-Make an option to have a deleted plate bracket mount(cleaner and easier for us to relocate the plate off to the side).
-Find SOMEONE who has the OEM Silvia Aero Front Lip and replicate that as well as an undermount bolt on. And make it about a 1/4-1/2" taller.
-ABSOLUTELY replicate the OEM Silvia side skirts. I'm sick of seeing people trying to sell the 180SX skirts as Silvia skirts.
-And if business goes well, JUN made a "Bonnet Lip" that went on the hood above the center grill. It was an aftermarket aero that I think is now discontinued. Paintable FRP and CarbonFiber would be nice.
